&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt; The Umbra of Earth &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Image Credit &amp; &lt;a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/lib/about_apod.html#srapply" target="_blank"&gt;Copyright&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="mailto:luckwlt%20at%20hotmail%20dot%20com" target="_blank"&gt;Wang, Letian&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Explanation: &lt;/strong&gt; The dark, inner shadow of planet Earth is called &lt;a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap060909.html" target="_blank"&gt;the umbra&lt;/a&gt;.  Shaped like a cone extending into space, it has a circular cross section most easily seen during a &lt;a href="http://www.mreclipse.com/Special/LEprimer.html" target="_blank"&gt;lunar eclipse&lt;/a&gt;.  For example, last Saturday the &lt;a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap080220.html" target="_blank"&gt;Full Moon slid&lt;/a&gt; across the southern half of Earth’s umbral shadow, &lt;a href="http://asterisk.apod.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&amp;t=26135" target="_blank"&gt;entertaining moonwatchers&lt;/a&gt; around much of the planet.  In the total phase of the eclipse, the Moon was completely within the umbra for 51 minutes.  Recorded from Beijing, China, this composite eclipse image uses &lt;a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap070901.html" target="_blank"&gt;successive&lt;/a&gt; pictures from totality (center) and partial phases to trace out a large part of the umbra’s &lt;a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap080820.html" target="_blank"&gt;curved edge&lt;/a&gt;.  Background stars are visible in the &lt;a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110621.html" target="_blank"&gt;darker&lt;/a&gt; eclipse phases.  The result shows the relative size of the shadow’s cross section at the distance of the Moon, as well as the Moon’s path &lt;a href="http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LRO/news/dec2011-eclipse.html" target="_blank"&gt;through Earth’s umbra&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I extracted more shadows for you.  I keep hearing this song around, and finally wanted to look up what these guys looked like.  Of course, I was overjoyed when I saw the video.  Since they were so cool to use shadow play in their video, I had to extract those shadows and feature here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wanted to create a single page collage, but I could barely choose from some 80 still shots I took from the video, and ended up putting together a four-page album. But who’s complaining…right?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://umbratorium.tumblr.com/post/10566146987</link><guid>http://umbratorium.tumblr.com/post/10566146987</guid><pubDate>Fri, 23 Sep 2011 15:15:00 -0500</pubDate><category>adam levine</category><category>collage</category><category>photography</category><category>shadow</category><category>shadow art</category><category>shadow theater</category><category>stereo hearts</category><category>gym class heroes</category><dc:creator>pondery</dc:creator></item><item><title>Shadow on Yellow by ~J-Skellington</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrwaokFbDn1qmn31oo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://J-Skellington.deviantart.com/art/Shadow-on-Yellow-259386732" target="_blank"&gt;Shadow on Yellow&lt;/a&gt; by ~&lt;a href="http://j-skellington.deviantart.com/" target="_blank"&gt;J-Skellington&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://umbratorium.tumblr.com/post/10496557829</link><guid>http://umbratorium.tumblr.com/post/10496557829</guid><pubDate>Wed, 21 Sep 2011 18:02:00 -0500</pubDate><category>shadow</category><category>art</category><category>photography</category><category>yellow</category><dc:creator>pondery</dc:creator></item><item><title>Close Encounters</title><description>
