Shadow Shot Sunday!


We do have sun again! As of yesterday! So, I have a few new things for this week. Anyway, for those of you who don't know about this addictive pastime that so many of us have gotten involved in, it's Shadow Shot Sunday and is hosted each week by Tracy over at Hey Harriet, so click on the icon and hop over to her blog, sign in and show and share the shadows that you discover!

Sam isn't accustomed to all that warm sunshine and he was almost tripping over his tongue!



I always love the very different shadow patterns I can find on the deck.





Had to drink a toast to the beautiful blue skies! Hope they hang around for another day!! or two, or three!!

Very nice! As usual, the colored glass is my favorite (love that deep blue), but I also really like the stair shadow, with the two sets of lines not quite aligning. Have a great weekend!

Good morning to you Sylvia & to cute little shadowy Sam. Great Shadow Shots...the blue bottle and glass make me want to join you for a drink!

Arija said...

Sylvis, your steps look quite dangerous with the dark shadows masking them. Love the blue shadows of the glass.

This is such a fun meme. Hope you have grand week ahead.

Greetings from a wet and foggy land down under.

Hi Sylvia, I see you found some nice line and dog shaped shadows on your deck. The colored glass shadows are fun too. I hope you have many more sunny blue sky days. :)

Hey Sylvia !
I am a deck shadow watcher too ..love the strong contrast patterns the wood makes in the sun. I am fascinated by blue bottles, dishes .. they are so gorgeous half in and out of shadows .. that picture was awesome !

Your deck always lends itself to wonderful shadows! When there is sun, that is!
I couldn't help but wonder if there was anything celebratory and fun to drink in those lovely blue glasses.
No matter, I imagined that they were full of wonderful champagne to celebrate the day with!

I'm so glad you had some sun this week. Enough grey skies! As always, you have great shadows, including the light through glass ones. :)

Your deck looks like a great place for catching a little bit of the elusive sun (and shadows) when it graces your corner of the world.

Hi Sylvia, Great shots this week, I really like the one of your stairs. Sam the dog sure is a cutie

jabblog said...

It's so good to see the sun after dismal days and your shadow shots are a real celebration of it, just in time for the summer solstice. Have a lovely week Sylvia :-)

Hey Harriet said...

Oh yes I'll drink to toast beautiful blue skies too! And to toast your wonderful shadows! Hope you have a lovely week Sylvia :)

Spadoman said...

Sylvia, you are a classic! I can always count on at least one picture of shadows through colored glass, and I love them.
I looked at the photos of the pet post above this one and I like the shadows and the pictures there too!
And that header, WOW. That is fantastic. I will visit that site as soon as I recover and unpack from my road trip.

Peace.

Great shadow shots and I, too, really like those blue bottle shadows. I hope Sam was able to find some shade. =)
