Get out the magnifying glass, get into your best sleuthing clothes and start prowling your environment looking for those wonderful, but sometimes elusive shadows.

It's actually been rather easy to find shadows this week as summer tiptoes shyly, reluctantly, slowly into the northwest! Believe me, I'm not complaining about our temps in light of the weather grilling the rest of the country!! But the sun here has been lovely! Wishing you all a wonderful weekend with lots of love and laughter and fun -- but stay cool!!
To the people of Norway, my thoughts and prayers are with you!! |

Beautiful ShadowShots Sylvia. I join you with my thoughts & prayers for Norway. The world has gone mad.
The trellis on that lovely deck adds linear shadows, while the potted flora natural ones. A fine day in your neighborhood!
Your header is wonderful, the reception in the living room is great!
I can see summery shadow shots here!
My friend's son was in Oslo on the way to the airport from the center of the city where the horrible bombing happened. Lucky guy, he's safe and back home in Helsinki...
Hot and sticky summer greetings from up here! :)

Your planters look gorgeous, and the shadows are perfect.
Have a great week, Sylvia.And like you my thoughts are with the people in Norway.
The shadows if the first one are so eye catching and geometric. The collage is so well balanced and pleasing to the eye!
Nice shadow shots for the week end..!
Beautiful set. I heard it's been really hot there lately. Here's my SSS share. Happy Sunday!
The huge tree at the top right is a beauty. The whole scene there is probably lovely.
Love that big tree. You've found some beautiful, shady places.
You've shared some beautiful gardens with us. I also love that big tree. Imagine how old it must be!
I am also thinking about those poor people in Norway. What a tragedy.
I hope you are having a nice weekend, Sylvia!
all so pretty

Beautiful shadows Sylvia.
Have a beautiful Sunday.

The flowers are so lush and pretty. Glad you found some sun so you could get a few shadows. I think we're in the same corner of the country - not a lot of sun, and everything is one big shadow (until today!).
I love them all...beautiful shadow shots...mine ay Mom's Place
Such beautiful, peaceful shadows, Sylvia. Have a wonderful Sunday!
Thats a nice shadowy shot
I always amazes me as to how you manage to visit so many people's blog and encourage them with your kind words. Have a blessed weekend.
Nice collage.
Regards!

OH SYLVIA....Great quote is.
Nice shots of flowers

Lady Sylvia... I love that balcony shot a lot! Good stuff all around. Hope you are doing well.
Peace
It is wonderful to see the sun, there have been so many cloudy days! The shadows on the deck are encouraging!
You find the best quotes!
After enjoying the deck for awhile, I want to lay down beneath that great tree.
May your coming week be without too many dark shadows!
Pretty photos. Great quote from Mark Twain. :)
The shadow shots are wonderful. A sleepy conscience" kind of worries me (I don't really think Mark Twain's WAS sleepy, but I am afraid mine might be -- as I decided I'd rather blog than read the paper this morning, b/c of all the disturbing news. (And thank you for not having a sleepy one too -= and for mentioning the NOrway tragedy.)
Sylvia, Lovely compositions! Hope you are enjoying a relaxing weekend.
I think I have as much fun looking at your header each week as I do your shadow shot!
The trellis on the deck makes a wonderful shadow.
Lovely shadow shots and sentiments Sylvia. Happy SSS.
Ahhhh, sweet summertime...oh so grand...and way too short, have a grand one Sylvia!
The deck is gorgeous and so is your collage.
What a nice, summery collection of shadows! See, you Do get sunshine there after all!! ; )
Hope you're having fun! I see that party moved into your house (the banner).
Love the trellis shot! I share your concern about the people of Norway-so sad.
What lovely shadows! Lots of sun sure makes a difference! Glad you are getting some summery weather!
