Friday Foto Flogging

Welcome to Friday Foto Flogging, a place to share your photos and photography news. We were inspired by the folks at European Tribune who post a regular Friday Photoblog series to try the same on this side of the virtual Atlantic. We also thought foto folks would enjoy seeing some other websites so each week we’ll introduce a different photo website.

This week’s theme is Silhouettes and Shadows
show us a story etched in light and dark, contrasts and outlines, presence and absence.*

Websites of the Week: For anyone who plays with Photoshop, here’s a great post full of tutorials and how-tos: How to Master Photoshop in Just One Week. And for those not interested in the PS link, BetterPhoto.com has some nifty shadow photos.
