An "ink" painting (墨絵) made with sun and shadow.

Beautiful. It's perfectly balanced. That tree in the background does look like ink on damp watercolour paper.

I love the simplicity of this image, and the soft shadows that overlay just give the photo a nice touch.

This shots beauty lies in your play with light and its composition. You really know how to do this...

Really like the leaf-less shadow and the simplicity of the facade. I really thought, for a second, that's a real bell floating in midair. Very beautiful shot GJC.

Lovely division of space and each rectangle is an interesting self contained "drawing."
