Shadow Shot Sunday!


Join us for Shadow Shot Sunday and play with us in the sun and shadows! Click here to sign in and join the fun!
Also remember Earth Hour 2009! Kudos -- again -- to Australia for reminding us to take care of the Earth. Click here to watch a great video!

It's hard to find shadows with the shortage of sun these days -- I know spring is coming! But when???

I caught this as I was going downstairs to the basement. I got caught there last week myself!

Candles in my bedroom.

Plants in the kitchen.

And playing finger games when I could find nothing else to occupy me and I didn't want to leave the sunny kitchen.

    I love the fingers!

    You're right about having to go look for sunshine: our day here dawned beautifully, then a little while ago it snowed. SNOWED. I nearly cried, but came to you instead. You always cheer me up.

    Thanks for the sunshiny photos and wise words today!

    I have a hard time leaving my sunny spaces, even in the heat of the summer, neat shadows.

    The sun finally came out here, if weakly. Your shadows are soft and pretty!

    I am lucky to have lots of sun here so lots of outdoor shadows to find! Your shots are very creative so well done for finding them all.

    BTW, thanks for posting the link to the Earth Hour 2009 video. I'd heard about it on another blog, but the link didn't give me much info. It's a great idea. Now, instead of my original plan of moping all night long, I'll at least make something good out of one hour!

    Nice shadows! Love the finger puppet one, but my fave is the candles. I love the diagonal line of the sun spot there.

    What a pretty staircase! We don't blame you - basking in the sun is a joy isn't it?!

    Sun is in short supply, but coming in at very cool angles.

    Like your blog itself, Sylvia, your shadow shots are warm and inviting. Fear not though, we are gaining on better spring weather, but that always includes some rainy, cloudy days here in our neck of the woods. Your raindrops on branches today are dazzling jewels of nature. Thank you!
