While visiting Casa Grande National Monument, I found plenty of opportunity to play with surfaces striped with light and shadow. And so that is what I did. I played!

I took these photos at the visitor center and the outside ramada where Park Rangers give talks about the ancient ruins of a Hohokam-era farming village and a four-story Great House.

About Bo Mackison
The stripes of blue sky are brilliant Bo! Playing with shadows and silhouettes with the camera is always fun and you have certainly played wonderfully with the stripes. 🙂
I seem to be unable to resist the stripes of light and shadow. And I love it when other photographers are trying to decide just what my subject is! LOL!
I can understand playing with those Bo!
Oh yes, Montucky. Never one to pass a lovely stretch of stripes! 🙂

And there are plenty more in the catalogue, Marcie. I love me these stripes!!!
