Ha ha ha. Rather nice one, this. Tried to make sense out of it -- you know, which angle you pointed the camera etc. etc. Is it upside down?

Good on you, eager!

Great patterns. Fantastic use of shadows. I especially like how the different textures interweave.

Well done!

Well seen, this image easily wins the "most shadows" category at least

Thank you all for your kind comments!

To help your eyes and brain get back in sync...

This is a single black metal table surrounded by eight chairs. The shot was taken from a deck about 20 feet above the table. It was about 11:30 am with bright sunlight coming from the lower edge of the frame.

And yes...the picture is currently displayed "upside down".

So all the chairs and the table at the "top" of the image are shadow furniture.

( I just love the way photography allows us to adjust reality )

This is a great image. It draws the viewer in to take a much closer look. Well Done! Good luck this week, you deserve to do well - fantastic shadows - taken at just the right time I think, longer shadows would not have been so balanced in the composition. Alison

Thanks for your comments.

It did seem to end up with a sort of "Escher-like" quality that forces your brain to override what your eyes try to do with it.
