Shadow Shot Sunday!



Time for Shadow Shot Sunday! This meme is hosted by Harriet at Hey Harriet, click to sign up and play with the rest of us! It's fun and challenging to see how many and what kinds of shadows you can find.

These next two were taken on Mother's Day when we went to the Woodland Park Zoo. It was feeding time for the Penguins and I caught their reflections in the pool.



And more Flamingos along with their Mallard friend who still can't figure out why they're pink and he isn't.



This is just a lovely summer shadow of trees and flowers. Love this time of year!

    Wonderful shoot. I've been thinking of joining Shadow Shot Sunday...although the Friday Shoot out has become a fixation for me and I'm afraid the same could happen here.

    Even the shadows of flowers can be subtly lovely, can't they?
