Shadow

ST. LOUIS CATHEDRAL, NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA, JANUARY 12, 2011

Jackson Square in New Orleans is possibly the world's greatest magnet for tourists, especially with the St. Louis Cathedral as backdrop on the northwest side. We were no different during our recent visit, but Deborah Abbott quickly saw that the shadow of the statue of Andrew Jackson behind her fell in a strategic spot at that time of year. She came away with a great shot that symbolizes the town.

Great eye to spot the shadow. Great technique to follow up with a well-exposed, well-focused shot as well.
