Silhouettes are those shapes whose forms we can intuit just by their borders… inside them there is a plain mystery with details, colors and stories hide from us.
Perhaps that is the fascination with silhouettes, in our hope that nothing is empty or meaningless they invite us to create stories to explain them.

Very often silhouettes belong to the kingdoms of duks and dawn, but not always…

Of course with the technology of current cameras we can illuminate what seems a pure and total shadow; but a world without mystery would lose so many beauty as we fill the shadows with our dreams…

things reduced to a line ! There is a series of Italian cartoons, la linea, drawn by Osvaldo Cavandoli, based on the silhouette of a character, which is just gorgeous in its simplicity and the expression of emotions. Have a funny day, Francis !
Thank you Gilles for the data :O Formidable work, with a line his characters that look so free and flexible, and quite expressive. Funny day for you as well Gilles.
oh quelle belle série, francis!!! I liiiiike!
J’adore les silhouettes malyloup, merci beaucoup. Un sourire ^_^
Lush series of silo’s, especially like the wind turbine. 😊
Oh, that’s in the countryside, the sky was so special that day… thank you, fragglerocking ☺
just breath taking Francis
Thank you kind lady, they are shot across three years. ^-^
like mine.. all from my archives
I know, our time is so scarce, I admire fragglerocking for produce a daily fresh photograph with not a drop of sweat.
yep your right about fraggy .i did a 52 weeker on flickr one year that was enough for me.
I never did one but it’s already enough for me. : D

Thank you Hillechien, the language of shadows, that’s true.
I like silhouettes too. They’re always moody and mysterious and often very beautiful. In fact, the only thing I don’t like about them is trying to spell the word. (I cut and paste the one on this comment just to be sure.) :)
Oh! But English is not my native language kind sir. You are copy pasting from a very mischievous source! : )
(Guessing you do it from me I mean)
Yes, I copied and pasted it from you. Oh well, if the spelling’s wrong, we can both be wrong together. :)
Certainly is a relief to know we are not alone if we made a mistake. : )
Safety in numbers, right? :)
More like a partner to talk while we walk the path of mistakes. : D
Each picture, Francis, I mean.. such beauty, the very first one really looks like a dream. : ) Also, the Campina (sorry, I can’t seem to find a special ..n for it) ..lovely little clouds. From beyond the shadows and the silhouettes, so much light and color.. maybe also from our beautiful dreams. ^_^
I can give it to you ^^ ———-> ñ and Ñ to copy and paste.
The colors are more intense when they are framed by shadows ^-^ I reduced the exposure to get most of those silhouettes. : )
Thank you, Francis ^^ Yes, the colors in your photos are always special, they have that warmth.. soft and glossy to the eye. I just love the turquoise, for instance. ^_^
Turquoise is the color of the sea in Ilo city, your eyes would love it, Nicol ^_^
I’m quite sure they would, thank you, Francis ^_^
