Shadow Shot Sunday!


So, how good are you at finding shadows? Shadow Shot Sunday is a truly addictive meme hosted by Tracy over at Hey Harriet! Click on the logo and show us what you've found!

November in Seattle is about as gray as you can get, so I was having to do a little reminiscing about sunnier days.

Here is Sam and Mojo enjoying some sun on the deck last month!



Our once sunny kitchen! Ah, surely the sun will put in an appearance again soon!



A statue at the Lavender Festival in July!



Interesting shadow of a large planter in our living room.



And a couple of old colored shadows -- a candle holder and glass "rock" from my old aquarium.

Sam and Mojo make such great shadows! All of these are great. And of course, I love the colored ones best.

Nice. I especially like how Sam and Mojo seem to be looking at theirs. Well done. Have a wonderful weekend my friend :)

Ralph said...

The shadows of the doggies give us their form so nicely. Standing or sitting, these shadows are as upright and proud as the subjects...

Your refrigerator is a fine canvas for the flowery views. I am always amazed by your so colorful shadows! The colors go beyond the usual gray/charcoal shadow, a treat for our eyes...

Sam and Mojo have great shadows and the lines on the deck are fun. I like the statue and kitchen too.

Lovely shadows from Seattle! Sam and Moto are too cute-looks like they are studying their shadows very seriously. The kitchen shadow is the one that really 'speaks' to me, though.
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving and that it continues on throughout the weekend!

Cloudy days do have their up side, don't they? They force you to go through your images from sunnier days and we are privileged to view your wonderful shots. So thank you, clouds!

Patti said...

Interesting shadow finds, Sylvia. The colored glass shadows are so pretty. And Sam and Mojo are great photo subjects!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Have a good weekend!

Martha Z said...

Sam and Mojoy both seem intrigued by their shadows. The piece of green glass reminds me of a watermelon. Nice series.

The Summer Kitchen Girls said...

We think Sam & Mojo look like they are studing thier shadows, too!
We love the aquarium rock, very interesting!

Beautiful collection of shadows! Especially love the detail of Mojo's and Sam's shadows. The last photo of green and shadow is quite magical!

Wonderful shadow shots, especially the glass ones.
We may get shadows sometime, if the sun ever comes out!
Have a lovely day.
Sunny :)

What lovely shadow shots Sylvia. All your photos are great but I loved the one of Sam and Mojo, and that beautiful statue. A great variety of fun shadows.

Janie said...

Great shadows of Sam and Mojo, who kindly paused for your shot. I really like the shadows from the colored glass, too.

I like the blue and green colour. The fish must have loved them.

Beautiful shadow pictures!

Hey Harriet said...

These are great! I love the first one best, with the doggies looking at their own shadows and then the shadows looking at each other! Cute!

dianasfaria.com said...

Beverley Baird said...

Lovely shadows! IT is nice to remember those bright sunny days!
Really love your coloured glass shadows the best!

jabblog said...

Enjoyable sequence of shadow shots - so varied and interesting I find it hard to decide on a favourite (though I'm a sucker for the coloured glass and see from others' comments that I'm not alone!)

Anonymous said...

Great shadows and colours!

And Sam and Mojo - you guys looks great out there on the deck!

Sam said...

All so lovely! I think my fave though has to be those two pals Sam and Mojo! Lovely Sunday to you!

I always enjoy the creative shadows you find to share no matter what time of year! Love the ones of Mojo and Sam especially today ... they're so crisp and clear ;-)
Hugs and blessings,

toby said...

Lovely photos, all, and I'm impressed that you found so many! It's all I can do to find one a week :)

Author said...

Wow, you posted so many this week! The Windsor chair and plant is nice -- it looks like something I could have done.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Sam & Mojo are my fave! Great details! You've shared lots of great shadow shots--and the colored glass shots are always so pretty and relaxing. Hope you get some sunshine in the NW soon!

Lisa's RetroStyle said...

Pretty shadows. The color ones are always neat!

Amalou said...

Beautiful shadow shots. Those puppies must have known you were taking their shadows by the way they're looking at them.
