 We're actually having a few lovely days after nearly a week of nothing but rain! I had almost forgotten that sunshine could be so beautiful!  Yes! I exaggerate, but you get the picture!  Wishing you all a lovely weekend! Enjoy!

    I'm so in the mood for all those colorful shadows this morning. Thank you, Sylvia!

    SHADOWY DELIGHT

    Shadows above me, shadows below,
    Shadows beside me, wherever I go;

    Shadows each morning, shadows at night—
    Shadows, O shadows, you’re my delight!

    They are all beautiful shots! I agree about the sunshine-- I was positively giddy yesterday. Today is grey again, but my solar cells are filled up for a while!

    It's nice to see shadows, that means the sun is shinning. Warm, lovely sun. I'm not complaining thought, not really, I'd rather have the fog than the wind of the San Fernando Valley.

    Oh, I totally understand you. After a couple of weeks of no sun and just grey clouds, you really appreciate the sun!

    Fabulous shadow shots...and the colored one is unbelievable. I have never thought about getting a shadow in color. I only think of them as being in black and white. Like your wall....it is the best. I am grinning from ear to ear. Hope you have a nice week without toooo much rain. genie

    Where is my shadow,
    I can't find her anywhere,
    I'm lonely without her.

    If the lighting's right,
    and I am out in the yard,
    I bet she’ll be there.

    That will make me smile,
    My loneliness will then end,
    I'll be with my friend.

    Happy weekend to you too Sylvia -- that plant makes beautiful shadows.

    I'm glad you liked my balloon post and I posted some more pictures of that festival today (wanted to put the longer post on Skywatch, but we had a very slow connection on Thursday and I couldn't get it to load).

    I hope next week is less hectic than the last - at least I should be able to keep up with my replies this time!

    Camus was a dingus. If my life was the sum of all my choices (read: mistakes) it would be considered a wash! I like to think of my life as where I am now and the grace that has been afforded me ~ mistakes forgiven!! (Was into Camus as a youth...no more.) ANywhooo, love your colorful glass reflections & shadows. Happy SSS!!!
