Shadow Shot Sunday!

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

I can't believe we're already approaching Fall! Our weather has been good -- gray and overcast in the morning, but it burns off by noon and it's usually really beautiful for the rest of the day -- highs in the mid to upper 60s, low 70s! So, here are my shadow shots for the day!

    Another great collage! The vase is my favorite of course, but I also really like the flower shadows and the person (you?) shadow...

    Have a great weekend!

    Flowers, dogs, colored glass and photo artists. What better subjects for a shadowy post??

    I love the photo of the dog in front of the water and the one of you're shadow on the wall.

    Sounds like the afternoons are comfortable where you are.

    I've never gotten a Christmas cactus to produce that many blossoms! What's your secret, Sylvia?

    I like how you 'snuck' in that self portrait of you! A great series of shots as usual! Glad to hear your weather is holding up for you. We can feel fall in the air here only in the early mornings. Funny how it is right on cue.

    Can you believe it's almost September, where did our summer go. I felt like I was locked in the air conditioning for half of it...I so love the windows open and the curtains blowing in the warm(not steamy)breezes!

    Have a wonderful Sunday!

    Good morning Sylvia, I'm getting here a bit earlier than last week. :-)

    Love the mosaic. All wonderful shadows and that photo of your shadow is fantastic. A self-shadow portrait.

    Have a fun week seeking shadows.
