Not me–just my shadow
The other day, I noticed my shadow on the venetian blinds that cover my office window. Fascinated, I captured this image. That shadow resembles me, but only vaguely. (My head is not really that pointy, I don’t have offset Yoda-like ears and my neck is as long on one side as it is on the other.)
As I thought about this, I realized two factors were at play. The light source is diffuse (not focused). The individual blinds are set at an angle to that light.
Seems to me that this is a parable. I’ll let you draw you own conclusions, but you might consider illumination source, projection target and blinds (or blinders).
For my part, I think. I think I would like a wee nap.
I am reminded of those lamps that look like a tangle of plastic or metal but project images of real things on the walls. This is sort of the opposite.
Later, I realized that the shadow is not falling on the blinds, it is on a closet door. The light source (sun) is partially blocked into strips by the blinds. That would be a neat lamp.
It’s too late to contemplate tonight (though there are days when it’s perfect to contemplate). I think I’ll take a nap over here too… a 5 hour nap. 🙂 :laff:
At that time, I’d be taking an 8 to 9 hour nap. :rolleyes:
I’m glad your head isn’t really shaped like that. :whaa:
Gee thanks, Lin . . . I think. :rolleyes:
If it were shaped like that it would hard to find a good hat, :dunce: and harder to get a good haircut. :frustrate:
