Shadow Shot Sunday!


Sleuths around the world, unite and see what kind of shadow shots we can find to display for Tracy over at Hey Harriet's!! Click on the icon, sign up and show us what you've found!

Flowers and flowering trees are blooming, budding, leafing out in a lot areas here in Seattle, but we're still having a lot of rain and I didn't want to show any grumpy, gray shadows, so these are from last spring. It is wonderful to begin to see colors and shadows do more than peep out for an hour or so, but I'll take them anytime!!

These are in our neighbors yard.



At the park near the harbor!





Guess where?



And a sip of tea on the front porch!



And a splash of color along the alley behind our house!

  1. Beautiful captures from all around - not to mention that Windsor back chair in the kitchen. Shrubbery and plants leave such lovely shadows as they are so beautiful themselves. Nicely captured as always!

  7. Azaleas afire,
    burning brighter than ten suns—
    holy flames rising.

  31. Oooh you have some lovely flowers around your house. It's great to hear that things are warming up for you. Your garden will be bursting with colour again soon! I hear that it oftens rains in Seattle. I also hear that some of the best coffee can be found in Seattle cafes. They kind of go together...rainy days and good coffee :)

    Have a great week!

  36. I felt warmer just looking at your photos, Sylvia.

    The rhododendron is beautiful. I took some pix of rhododendron last May. Beautiful pink.

    The shadows on the sidewalk are lovely.

    I'm guessing it's your kitchen. :-)

    Enjoy your Sunday!
