    I keep staring at this image as I study the scene of each skater on the ice. First, taking an aerial photo of this scene is a great idea. It's a different perspective that really works, watching each skater glide along the ice as their shadows follow them wherever they go. Second, I'm just fascinated by seeing the shadows grow in length, thanks to the position of the sunlight that is beaming down on the ice.
