The end of another Winter day in the North of England....I just had to stop for a second and take a photo of the dramatic shadows.

NIKON D40 1/2000 second F/4.0 ISO 200 15 mm (35mm equiv.)

The kind of photo you do well. You like those long shadows and you always see interesting compositional possibilities for them. I like the distortion of the sidewalk in the foreground; reminds me of the Japanese woodblock print's use of perspective.

Beautiful shot, Ian! The long shadows and the warm glow of the late afternoon sun combine for a lovely scene.

Great shadows indeed. Nice use of the wide-angle, makes it look even more dramatic.

I don't know what awes me more: This sumptuous, wonderful shadows and perfect photo or the fact that this is your winter! I'm crying and as meatloaf sang... Icicle instead of tears

Your instincts were perfect. This is a powerful streetshot with those shadows. BTW, I like the ways you frame your photos here, today's included.
