Last Photographer Standing #13 (Light or Shadow) - Entry thread

Last Photographer Standing Contest Qualifying Round #13

Welcome to Contest #13, a qualifying round. This round is open to any dgrin member! It will run from Monday, September 17th 00:01 (12:01am), NYC time (GMT -5) to Monday, October 1st 00:01 (12:01am), NYC time (GMT -5).

The topic ready for your interpretation: Light or Shadow.

Shay says:

A bit more technical this round, but you don't have to have lighting equipment in order to infuse your photo with light or drape it with shadow. Shadows can be mysterious, but beware of going overboard to the point where there is nothing of interest left visible either. Play with light or shadow; absorb it, drench it, paint it, just let it be the subject.
