Shadow Shot Sunday!


It's that time again, my shadow addicted friends!! What have your chased down for today?? Shadow Shot is hosted by Tracy over at Hey Harriet, click on the icon, sign up and share what kind of shadows you've found for today!

We had one of those white sky, sunny days yesterday -- sunny, but not blue, but I did find some shadows. Everything is blooming now and color and shadows are everywhere.









Yesterday I laundered my lace curtains and as I laid them across the table and guess what??

Looks like spring is arriving up there. :-) Hope you're enjoying it.

That last shot with the vase and curtains is exquisite.

Amazing Quotes Sylvia. I liked the 'women' and the 'stamp' ones in particular.

There are those who say
tulips know nothing of song—
be still! They rejoice!

The trees and shrubs are in bloom, which adds a delicate feel to their shadows. I am happy to have any brightness, the sun peering through high clouds -plenty of glare but still beautiful. Have a nice week!

Oh - it has to be the last photo - with the pattern of the lace and the colours from the glass, superb!!

Lee Spangler said...

Oh yeah. tulip time is staring in the NW. Thx for reminding me, I'll be back this morning and will watch your blog daily.

Beautiful play of light and color in that last one, and even the shadows of your trees seem to be green and growing.

Pietro Brosio said...

Very fine shadow pictures, Sylvia. I like so much the tulips!

Your tulips and little white picket fence are just beckoning summer to come...a bit chilly here in Iowa, but I'll take it all the same...now I'm gonna go home from work and wash my lace curtains, you've inspired me!

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

Pretty shadows by lace. In Seattle, do you get to see many shadows? He-He, I used to live there. I also like the curved shadow. Thanks for visiting me today, I appreciate it! Joan

Now, this is what I called Springtime! Love the trees blooming. So pretty.

Sunny days really awesome so we can play & chase shadows above all, isn't it.

Happy SS, dear Sylvia.

Your first shot reminds me of the blossoms we saw today! So beautiful! Tulips we saw many too. Looks like Spring is here but over at your place too! Enjoy!

Carin said...

Hi Sylvia,

I am back again! Forgot to say how lovely your header picture is! What a mighty tree: so big and so full of lovely blossoms! This is definitely the best of time of year with nature slowly coming back to life and letting us enjoy its beauty!

Hope you are having a fun weekend!

When you feast your eyes on those beautiful blossoms, you know that life is good. And if only I had some lace curtains to launder!

Anca Pandrea said...

The vase shot is great, love it!

Gemma Wiseman said...

Beautiful street scenes but the rosy glow in the shadow on the white lace is magic and delightful!

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

You never have a bad photo, but these are particularly exquisite. I miss tulips -- too hot here I expect for them. And the shadow with the lace is beautiful.

Sam said...

Spring has sprung!! I adore your header - had to mention that first - that cherry blossom tree is glorious!

Your SSS photos are very pretty - so springy! You live in a very lovely part of the world! Have a terrific week!

Great outdoor shadows, thanks to a wee bit of sun! Your last photo is superb!

Isn't it wonderful when everything starts blooming? I love it.
Pretty red tulips!

I love the colored red glass shadow on the lace curtain shadow. So pretty and so Sylvia!

Hi Sylvia, thanks for visiting my blog. Love your shots of the blossom trees and the beautiful way you captured the shadow from the lace.

Wonderful spring shots, the last one is my favorite!

You found some very fine shadows, Sylvia! Sometimes it IS very hard to find decent shadows, though. You did very well.

The red light cast on the table looks very much like a full-blown rose to me. Thank you for taking me into your beautiful world and seeing things for all their splendid beauty.

What beautiful photos Sylvia. I will enjoy watching everyone in the Northern Hemisphere's photos while our weather is starting to cool and Winter approaches. The tulips and cherry blossom trees are awesome. So full of Spring.

Thank you for your comments on my attempts as SSS. They are always appreciated.

Those tulips look huge-or is the fence small? I love the blossom too and your favourite coloured glass shadow is very pretty this week!

Sylvia K said...

Sarah, yes, the fence is small, just around the tulip bed!

Boy, am I late, or what?? Went on a photo shoot all day Sunday. And, have been wiped out by spring time allergies. Beautiful spring flowers, but you might be able to guess which one is my favorite! Yep, the glass and the lace...
