I find the stairs a little bit over exposed, but otherwise a pleasing image that meets the challenge.

to me the shadows are not the main focus of this picture and I wouldnt have thought to consider them unless i read the title. perhapse a tighter crop would be benificial.

Interesting. I think the water in the background heightens the effect.

Too tenuous a title for my liking! If you continued the logic you could encompass all photos as science and include them in the challenge!

So Shadowoligy would be the science of studying shadows?
