Comment by mci:
i don't get it. i don't see any rain or shadows, and there's usually not any big green trees in the desert. but i'm not going to judge your photo on a bad title, so i digress. the white circular thing at the bottom is distracting, and i really fail to see how this fits the challenge.

Where's the rain? where are the shadows?

I wish there were more contrast with the shadows here.

I don't get it. Were you going for the shadows between the leaves? Don't understand your title either. I must be having a bad day.
Photo 8 Creativity (see above)??? Shadows 2 total 5 (I bumped you up one, hoping that it must be me and this is better than I can figure out.)

Comment by karmat:
Shadows are a part of this picture, yes. Getting closer and doing something close-up/abstract may have made them more prominent. I don't know for sure. Would it have been possible to crop the chair (?) out of the bottom?

Comment by Digipixer:
A little more contrast is needed --can't see the shadows too well.and that round thing at the bottom should be cropped off.

Comment by Froober:
I can't figure out how this relates to the challenge. I only see 1.5 unremarkable shadows/shaded areas on the underside of the limbs. In general, more focus, a little lighter and crop out whatever's sticking up from the bottom and you'd have a photo that would please me...but who's out there trying to please me anyway? : )

The mailbox (is that a mailbox) in the bottom of the frame is a distraction.

There are no shadows (being the subject) in this photo.
