Finding shadows during the frequently gray days of autumn can be a challenge, but it does frequently inspire one to be more creative! Shadow Shot Sunday is hosted every every week by Tracy at Hey Harriet and believe me it's the most fun ever! Click on her name, sign up and join the fun!I tried to find shadows inside this week because although we had some occasional sun, it was cold and windy and I'm a chicken where cold, windy weather is concerned. So, started looking around the house and these are what I found. All of the shots are more interesting if you click on them to embiggen!
The first is sun coming through a seashell that I brought home from a vacation years ago.
This was a almost hidden shadow on one of my plants.
The next two are just some favorite color shadows that I'm always playing with.

I like the fact that you have living indoor plants! I don't have any, because I am a lazy gardener.
BTW, Sylvia, if you follow my recipe for CHICKEN FIESTA, please REDUCE the black pepper from 1 tablespoon to 1 TEAspoon.
Mahalo!

you are THE undefeated champion of color shadows!!
love them all
I really enjoy the hints of color in your shadows, first from the glassware and now the translucent shell. The shadows of green, blue and coral are artistic with the brief hues they leave. Nice!
Lovely shadows Sylvia - especially the coloured glass!
Sylvia, thanks for your kind words. You're right, shadows are sometimes are to find, they being dependant upon light and objects for their very existance. But you found some great ones.
Love your creative shadows. There are enough long, dark shadows here in Tampa to ship some off to you wonderful folks with gray skies and cooler temps. It is HOT here and I am trying to pretend it's Halloween outside with autumnal-looking arrangements on the porch...but the sweat is dripping on the fake pumpkins. (Fake because the real ones don't last in the heat, they become pies pretty fast.)
So pretty.
Happy SSS. I like the shadows of color from the glass - great!
Hi Sylvia! you treated us with another color shadow...thank you!!
Great shots Sylvia! I especially love the shell. I hope the weather warms up a bit this weekend!
That's an interesting way to look at a shell with light coming through. The colored glass shadows are gorgeous and I'm surprised how tall the blue one is.
Great shots! I love that cat photo on your sidebar, too. That is funny! Happy Halloween.
The green vase shadow looks like water. I love that one.
Perfect!! You always manage to find them no matter how hard they try to hide! I love the shell.
Have a great SSS!
The green vase shadow is pretty - they are all lovely actually!
nice shots! I love the transluscent sea shell.
all thoe are such brilliant takes on the theme!
Always an interesting collection of shadows but the first one is my favorite. It reminds me of one I took on the beach a few years ago.
Love the light glowing in the shell. Looks like you have a house full of lovely shadows.
oh yes, beautiful as usual!
Love that first coloured shadow! Hey I'm a big chicken when it comes to cold and windy weather too! I run and hide from it :)
wow, the seashell shot is just perfect!
Your colored reflections are always my favorites and I think the shell with its golden ambience qualifies today as well!
Lovely Sylvia!
The green shadows had much in them and I can see why you want to play with them.
Love!! the coloured glass,, really nice!! It' all about shadows, or light, if you want.
I love the colors of the glass reflections as the sun shines through them and leaves lovely patterns of shadowy color.
I learned this wonderful lesson from you Sylvia. So I tried it too. Thanks, your a great teacher.
Have a nice Sunday :)
Into the blue bowl
I place three sacred wishes—
which will be granted?
lovely series of shadows, specially the shell
love the shell shadow!!! very dreamy...
Absolutely beautiful shadows, Sylvia! Thanks for commenting over at my SSS! :)
Indoor plants and I are a lethal mix, so I admire anyone who can make a successful partnership. Oh, and I love that shell shot - beautiful.
Beautiful colours and shadows, as always! I always enjoy seeing the sunshine in these photos.
You really worked hard to find all those lovely shadows - just wonderful. All of the photos and quotes on your site are breathtaking. B : )
