Shadows and Light: A Photographic Journey Through Britain – Stock Photos for Educators A collection of photos of shadows I have taken on my adventures around Great Britain. I originally put this collection together for my students for our primary science sessions. Explore the interplay of shadows and light with this unique collection of photographs taken across Britain. These stock photos capture a variety of scenes, showcasing the beauty and drama created by light and shadow in everyday life. Perfect for educators looking to illustrate concepts related to light, art, and photography, this collection is designed to inspire creativity and enhance learning. Key Features: Diverse collection of photographs featuring shadows and light in various British settings. Ideal for creating teaching resources, classroom displays, or art projects. Suitable for educational and commercial use (not for resale as standalone images). Use these captivating visuals to spark discussions, inspire artistic expression, and deepen students’ understanding of how light shapes our world. Suggested Links/Uses with the UK National Curriculum This photo collection aligns with several areas of the UK National Curriculum, making it a versatile resource for educators: Art and Design (KS1, KS2, KS3): Exploring the use of light and shadow in visual compositions. Encouraging students to create their own art inspired by the photographs. Science (KS2, KS3): Teach about the properties of light, including reflection, refraction, and absorption. Use the photos to illustrate how shadows are formed. Photography (KS4/GCSE): Analyze the composition and lighting techniques used in each photograph. Use the photos as inspiration for students’ photography projects. English: Inspire students to write descriptive pieces or poems about shadows and light. Links to Special Days Groundhog Day, celebrated on February 2nd, is linked to shadows. According to folklore, if a groundhog sees its shadow on this day, it will retreat back into its burrow, and winter will continue for six more weeks. If it doesn’t see its shadow, spring will arrive early. Terms of Use These images are licensed for educational and commercial use. Educators may include them in their own teaching resources or classroom activities. Images cannot be resold or distributed as standalone products. Proper credit must be given when using the photos in public-facing materials: ©TheCuriosityCrows Illuminate your lessons with this stunning Shadows and Light photography collection!
