Faisal, congratulations on your prize.
I like this photo much because it is intriguing to me. It does not read quickly due to the fine shadows, and of course due to your turning it upside down. Besides I am still trying to understand your title - I am not sure I get it, which is just adding to the interest.
It is good photo-work, too, with good perspective and control of the light.
So I am happy to share the second prize this month with you.
My best regards
Peder. #10358056

Thanks again, everybody. Always appreciated.

Peder: thank you so much for taking the time to look and share your thoughts.
I guess on all of my shadow series work, intrigue or interest is what I was hoping for and I'm glad I hit that with you. I see a different world in shadows and I was hoping it would stop people to look and spend time with it

As for the title, the photo was taken in Rome. I think shadows are close to the truth but not 100%, like a slightly false version of reality (like rumors, stories or in this case "legends") #10360500
