In the summer of 1916, Alfred Stieglitz invited his friend, the painter Abraham Walkowitz, to visit his family’s country home on Lake George, in upstate New York.
Stieglitz used his camera to capture his own shadow (on the right) with Walkowitz in the shallow waters of Lake George.
I love looking at light on the water. It’s fleeting and impossible to really capture in a picture, but I like the movement in this very ephemeral photograph!

My first thought: “Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?…The Shadow knows!”
One of radio’s most memorable dramas, The Shadow chronicled the adventures of Lamont Cranston and his companion Margo Lane. As The Shadow, Cranston used a “hypnotic power to cloud men’s minds so that they cannot see him.”

I would pay a lot of money to have that ability. I’ll have to look into the Shadow!
