Single In Single in September (SiS) 2023 - outtakes day 11-15

Two B&Ws from the cemetery, one of them being the same as the Day 11 entry, just a mono version.

Day 11 - Outtakes

Continuing the series of shots of small toys or figurines on windowsills or inside planters, here are a few others, starting with this tiny garden gnome, sandwiched between two larger flowerpots--

Then this puppet on one end of another windowsill--

And on the other end of the same sill, a 2nd puppet... are they staring at each other, across the intervening potted plants?

And finally, my other contender for best shot of the day: the small head of a sleeping boy, asleep inside a flowerpot--

There's something about the light which comes through a window and how it alternately illuminates some things while casting others into shadow, that appeals to me.
 
Color version (and slightly different composition) of my main-thread image. The glare on the oak leaf killed consideration of this color image for the main thread for me, and I also don't like this composition quite as well. The subject was in nice open shade, but I needed a polarizer filter and didn't have one with me at the time. The glare was less pronounced in the B&W photo, so that one ended up in the main thread. In hindsight, I could also have just removed the leaf.

I really like the black & white version of this, but... I rather like this one as well. They offer two intriguing - but differing - perceptions of the same subject.
