Well, we had sun this week, but unfortunately I didn't have a car this week, so I was busily running around the house, looking for shadows! Needless to say, I did find some.







And Sam the Man!

Sam looks mightier in shadow - but very friendly. Shadows appear all around our domiciles, so we do not have far to look. Your glassware shadows are so elegant!

Interesting use of the glass and water to create the light effects in the first pic.

Weekend here is not going so well. Angry shouts and sounds of gunshots from the clashes between troops and protesters continue to puncture the night. Church is closed tomorrow, as the major junction of Asoke-Montri nearby is closed.

Martha Z said...

What a great capture on that first one, I love the effect the facets on the glass made.

Tom Hilton said...

The glass shadows are great...and I think this is my all-time favorite of your Sam shadows. Also: love the new banner shot! I always say that on a clear day, Seattle is the most beautiful city in the world.

Have a great weekend.

Diane AZ said...

Hi Sylvia, I think the first one is surprising and Sam's shadow looks like a moose!

Chasing Purple Dreams said...

I really like that glass shadow spread out all around the glass and the shot of Sam, what a fantastic shadow he casts.

Hot Fudge said...

I don't know about Sam the Man's bark, but I suspect his shadow is worse than his bite. What a guy.

Serendipity said...

The first one is my favourite; I really like glass shadows :)

SandyCarlson said...

I love Sam's portrait! The giant inside him is revealed!

Very pretty, lovely blue!

Hey Harriet said...

I adore the Sam the Man shot! His shadow looks huge. And what a great big head he has! I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend Sylvia :)

Carin said...

Love the round shadow around the glass and the shadow of Sam the Man makes him look so much bigger! Great find!

Enjoy your week!

Chubby Chieque said...

Playing under the sun is really an awesome game, isn't it?

It helps our brains to work coz we're trying to be creative chasing our perfect shadows. Just look what you accomplished.

Happy SSS my dear Lady.

x0x0 always...

Carolyn Ford said...

Wow, Sylvia...you really got some amazing shadows this week. The light penetrating the glass bottles is amazing and created some pretty interesting shadows. And, the elongated shadow of the dog...that is incredible. What fabulous compositions on all of them!

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

Your shadows are elegant! Mine are just silly. thank you for the lovely pictures.

Spadoman said...

I love the glass playing in the light, creating designs.
I also really like the dog shadow. Great capture!

Peace.

Great shadows, Sylvia. I love the first one and of course Sam is always so photogenic in body and shadow equally.

Beautiful series of shadows! And Sam's shadow seems to arch into a grand sculpture! Great shots!

Unknown said...

Love these! The glass is definitely half FULL! :-)

Love and peace

Hi Sylvia,
I see this is last week's shadow shot post. I missed it. They're all wonderful. I've missed you, too.

Paula Scott Molokai Girl Studio said...

ooooooh! Aaaaaaah! You out did yourself even if you were housebound with the shadows! Hope you had a great weekend soaking up all those rays!

GratefulPrayerThankfulHeart said...

The shadow and reflection of the glass is superb! I have a similar one in a draft but yours have the cool spikes radiating in a great pattern!
