What was the light source? I guess you’ve got me curious about the process…
LikeLike
Natural light and perhaps some paint that was over sprayed. When I converted it to B&W it allowed me some manipulation with contrast.

I’m still trying to figure out why….

See comment to Merrill…..that will explain the how. As to why…..You mean how?

Why or how pretty much amounted to the same thing in this case…. the question was pretty much why the “light” leaked out above the door frame. That was pretty tricky… I suppose I ought to be more explicit. Maybe.

No Gunta, don’t change a thing about you, please. Perhaps I could be less terse?

Nope… I suppose we’re just fine just as we are 🙂

The over-spray (or what I think is over-spray) across the top of the door frame is brilliant against the side of building. It is as if it is saying to the shadow, on the top part of the door, “You can have some of my space but you can never out shine me”! Very Cool shot Mike!
This no oh-by-the-way but I gave mom your message and she said “Thank You”. She is like that over-spray at the top of the door because of people like you.

Thank you for telling your mom that. If I was closer I would go visit her and hold her hand. Really I would. Yeah, I love how this door shot worked out. Thanks Sir Jagged.
