Shadow Shot Sunday!



Ah! time to play with shadows again! Click on Hey Harriet, sign up and join us in the fun!

When we were at the zoo on Mother's Day I got this shot of the flamingos and their one-legged shadows along with the mallard, who I think was wondering why he's so short and the wrong color! If you click on the photo to embiggen, you'll be able to see all of their colorful reflections in the water.



The doggies, Mojo and her friend, Izzie, enjoying the shade after a romp with Adam.



Lots of sun this week and time to bring out the deck furniture! My favorite place to eat! And again, if you embiggen you can see the reflection of the blue sky on the glass table. A lovely day!



And, of course, I always have to play with the color shadows!

    Those flamingos are priceless!

    All wonderful pictures, especially your deck - and of course the colored glass.

    Try as I might, I can't seem to find any interesting shadows around my home! Wonder what's wrong with me.

    That mallard looks a bit nonplussed over those long flamingo legs!

    Terrific shots. I'm rather partial to colored glass type shadows.

    LOL yep I can hear the mallard thinking :)
    Love te colour shadows. Still have to try it out but not much coloured glass around this house. Glad to read your weather is lovely too and it's just right when one sees the sky reflected in a glass table. Enjoy!
