This fun and challenging meme is hosted each week by Tracy over at Hey Harriet! Click on the link under the blog title and sign up to play!! Yep, same old, same old -- BUT! Saturday, Sunday and Monday are supposed to be sunny all day! Hopefully, I can catch something new for you guys to look at!!!

    I like the green landscape ShadowSHots today. And the line from Rbt.C.Gallagher gave me my first chuckle of the day. Happy SSS.

    Your colored shadows are always magical, Sylvia!

    BE MY COMPANION

    Come here, my shadow,
    Do not delay;
    Be my companion,
    Show me the way;
    Teach me your secrets,
    Chant as we go
    Of light and darkness—
    Make my heart glow!

    Lovely shots, as always. I especially like that second one. It makes me want to lean on my elbows, hidden in the shadows, and watch the street below.

    Yeah, sometimes I´m lured to use a vending machine and it´s always annoying if something goes horribly wrong and there is nobody to complain!

    Really uplifting small statue you have there.

    Your shadow shots are beautiful, and I especially liked the first two.... but it's the photo of the dog in the lap that made me smile the most.
