Attention Shadow Sleuths! It's that time again! So click on the icon, sign up and show us marvelous shadows you have tracked down over the week! This, ever-so-much-fun, meme is hosted by Tracy over at Hey Harriet. So confess your addiction and post your prizes for the week!
I'd first like to introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Canada Goose Butt who have settled into the park at the harbor here and have really been enjoying the the sunshine since their trip south. Remember to click on the shots to embiggen! I seem to have a penchant for duck/geese butts these days! Old age??? Why not? I blame everything else on it!
They're a bit camera shy and wouldn't let me get too close, but there were some lovely tree shadows as well. It is so beautiful at the park these days!
A lovely one I found next door!
Drum roll, please! Here is Sir Sam Schnauzer with the new haircut! Yes, I like him better with more hair, but this is his spring/summer cut!
Now, I realize that you guys are probably getting tired of seeing my various colored glass pieces every week, but I noticed something the other day when the sun suddenly poured through the window. When you just look at the vases etc. you see colored glass, plain and simple, but when the sun shines through them that same colored glass suddenly shows amazingly different textures/patterns that I find fascinating. And that's what makes the shadow shots of them such fun! Ah, the joy of simple pleasures! But perhaps you can see here what I'm talking about.

Mr. Sam looks 'lean and mean' if you know what I mean! And those goose butts are so darned cute! And you know I always, always love the glass!
happy Mother's Day! I hope you have a great day tomorrow!

I always enjoy looking at your colored shadows! I see something new in them each time.
As far as the geese- well, they bring to mind a saying a friend always said about someone one who talks too much.
She would say:
"Her mouth goes like a bell clapper on a goose's a$$." ;)
Happy SSS to you Sylvia.
Yes, I do see what you are talking about with the textures and patterns in the colored glass shadows.
Sam looks like he is ready for summer. ;-)
And as for the goose butts, I don't know what to say!!
Happy Mother's Day weekend, Sylvia.
Your goose butt Shadow Shots are nice, but little Sir Sam is the bestest!!
Smooches from pooches,

I like Mr. Sam's new look :) Am always happy to see you colored vases Sylvia. Stunning shadow shots.
Have a great weekend and Happy Mother's Day!!
Our schnauzer always looks ridiculous when he gets his summer hair cut, but it's a necessary evil. I like the colored shadow shots.
Sir Sam looks very stylish today!
And your color shadows are familiar...
Have a great weekend!
Happy SSS from Casa, Morocco!

I miss my geese from my place in Dayton. Our pond was alive with all sorts of birds and frogs and bunnies.
The colored glass is just beautiful and I double clicked the pictures to see them better.
They do come alive.
Sam , you never looked more handsome.
Happy Mother's Day my friend!
Yay beautiful shadow shots!! The colorful bottles are also great love it! Happy Sunday!

Sam is looking mighty fine my friend. :) I love all of these and I never tire of your colored glass shadows. They are fascinating and different each and every time you show them. :) Have a Happy Mothers Day :)
Sam leaves an impressive shadow even if shorn. Big shadow, nut never mean...the geese are enjoying the sun, although we stay away from them if they are with eggs or goslings. As always, a great montage!
Lovely shadow shots!
You have such a great blog :)

I wouldn't say no to this beautiful place, Lady?
Everything is perfect for a wonderful day.
Wishing you a happy Mother's Day tomorrow, if ever I won't come to visit you.
Looking at the simple beauty of those colored glasses and shadows, it is no wonder why churches spend so much on stained glass windows ;-P
Happy Mother's Day!
Ooh, no, no - don't give up the glass shadows - they are wonderful, my absolute favourite and I'm still hoping to catch some of my own :-)
Sam looks very smart, if a little naked - and as for butts - yep, I'm with you (but they have to be attractive ;-})
Beautiful birds and shadow shots. Beautiful collection of colored glasses.
Hi there Sylvia! Great shadow shots as usual!
Like your glass :)
Happy Sunday!
The geese are enjoying their day in the sun but Sam looks a bit cross about the hair cut.
As always, a beautiful collection of shadows, Sylvia!
Yay..these are all so super lovely..what a sweet pup...I love the geese..and of course..my fave is the array colored glass on the windowsill..one of my favorite things..beautiful job!
Have a happy shadowy day!

Oh who's a handsome boy then! Great haircut. Your coloured glass is beautiful - wish we had some sunshine! A x
Fun shadows today. And your flowers next door are beautiful. We will never tire of your colored glass. It is gorgeous.
Hi Sylvia! Like your shadow shots, have a nice weekend! :)
I think Sir Sam looks wonderful in his new cut :)
Happy SSS!

Happy Mother's day!
Fabulous shots as usual! I love the coloured glass and Sir Sam!
You made me laugh as I went to the barber shop this morning and got my summer cut, (even thoiugh it is unseasonably cool here and we are having April weather in May!)
I always like the colored glass oieces as well. The geese are a nuisance here. They litter the walking paths of the parks and cause my bicycle tires to spin wildly out of control!
Peace.
I love your coloured glass shots! I love them for the very reason you mentioned - that the shadow is all textured and wonderful! And look at that Sam - mr. Spiffy! What a handsome person he is!
Love the Canadian geese - they are amazing in real life - I always seem to see them on documentaries - and the azalias! Beautiful - and last of all - love your new header! What mountains are they? Are they the Rockies by any chance? Excuse my ignorance if they aren't! Have a lovely week ahead!
Great shadow shots as usual, Sylvia. I always love your colored glass. Never get tired looking at them. The pattern they show are amazing indeed. Mr Sam is so adorable.
Happy Mother's Day!
Amazing collection of shadows - some soft, some defined and some with rich colour! And dear Sam always looks so handsome!
hi, soon I am going to reveal what my mystery photo was ~
all so brilliant!
I know the Goose Butts' relatives on the East Coast. The goose equivalent of the fingers behind the head shots of human children. Love it.
And I love the light through the colored glass. A lot.
Thank you for the wonderful smile and chuckle this eve!
Goose tushies are so cute!
All are neat...and NEVER would I get tired of those brilliant colors of glass...the shadowy reflections are so great!

I love your red glass shadow & your geese shots are wonderful. You are a brave woman to get so close!
I love the colored shadows!
haha! Mr & Mrs Canada Goose Butt! I was almost too afraid to click on that first pic to embiggen. Those butts were plenty big enough already ;)
I don't think any of us are tired of your coloured glass shots. Are you kidding!?! I'm always in awe of them as I'm sure most others are! They're super, do don't stop sharing them! Hope you have a great week Sylvia :)
Gorgeous doggie! & I am loving those glass shadows - so colourful :)
I'm doing alotta summer buzzes on the furry butts around here too, even though it's been quite cold, had frost last night...is it summer yet!!!
Sylvia - you crack us up!! "M/M Duck Butt" - funny! You have fabulous shadows this week - and it wouldn't be shadow shots without your beautiful colored glass - we love seeing those shadows within your colored shadows!!
Sylvia, you always get the best shots with shadows! I never grow tired of your beautiful colored glass photos ~ they're kind of your trade mark! Very nice!
