If you utilize the shadows just at the right time and with the right angle, you can make believe that your bamboo is alot taller than it actually is.

That's it! I knew there was some mysterious reason for why I like looking at bamboo shadows. Normally I don't even notice any of the universe's dark matter.

Shadow tag is fun but dangerous. Maybe we'll shoot a bamboo fight scene a la Crouching Tiger Hidden Kiddy.
