Shadow Shot Sunday!

Hey! all you shadow sleuths! Time once again to display the results of your detective labors. Shadow Shot is hosted each week at Hey Harriet click there to sign up and become another Shadow Sherlock!



After finding the vase down in the basement last week, I returned to get a favorite wine glass out of storage and decided to see how it would look in the same window. Not as vivid as the green, but a nice color shot anyway.



Mojo the Most -- wondering, 'was it a bird, a plane or super dog???'



We've about seen the last of the lush, foliage shadows, so one last look!



And soon the colors will change, the shadows won't always be as sharp and clear, but more like these reflections in this pond near the beach. The ducks don't seem to mind what season it is as long as there's something to catch! This was taken last fall. You can always click to embiggen and see the details more clearly.

The blue shadow came out nicely. Mojo looks like he wants to jump in!

Great Shots!!

Enjoy the last of summer. At least our friends in the Southern Hemisphere will remind us that spring will come again.

Elizabeth Bradley said...

Summer fades away...and the shadows aren't as crisp and defined. But are they darker somehow, I wonder.

The wine glass shadow is beautiful and your other shots are lovely too, especially Mojo.

Sylvia, I read about you at Authorblog and I'm really curious about the post you mentioned (re: interracial marriage). Where can I find it?

I very much enjoyed your political call-to-arms from a few days ago. Keep fighting the good fight (in all things!).

Gemma Wiseman said...

Lovely variety of shadows here! Love the blue watery shadow of the wine glass!

Chris said...

I love your shadow shots Sylvia, especially the blue glass and the ducks.

Eddie Bluelights said...

Great set of photos with interesting commentary, Sylvia and many congratulations on your Sunday Roast which I enjoyed very much - thank you.

I was roasted last week and I intend reading all roasts from now on - great way of getting to know people.
Best wishes and I will return soon ~ Eddie

Lovely blue shadow! Glass can give us joy when it is full and when it is empty!

glorious images!!!!

Ducks are always good subjects because they hold mostly quite still, only some minor swimming, and they are not afraid to hang around people. There is plenty of time to fiddle with settings.

Hey Harriet said...

Great shots Sylvia! It looks to me like Mojo is looking longingly at the glass above and is wondering why he doesn't have any wine ;)

I love all the shadows! The blue glass is just gorgeous!

Kay said...

Very wonderful shadows, Sylvia. I always love the colored shadows.

maryt/theteach said...

Love the blue glass shadow, Sylvia! Yes, Autumn is on its way... :)

MyMaracas said...

Very pretty blue shadow. And your dogs always look so happy.

The Summer Kitchen Girls said...

We think it had to have been super dog by the look of Mojo! The blue shadow is nice as well- so much fun adding color to shadows!

Lovely shadows as always ... I especially like the first with the blue glass ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

Wonderful SSs--the blue glass is so serene. Love the Mojo shot too since I'm such a dog-lover. I'm loving the very early Fall colors, but am not looking forward to winter!

Wonderful shadowpictures. Love the blue glass!

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
