Shadow Shot Sunday!

Shadow Shot Sunday #2 - Magical Mystical Teacher + Chubskulit + Gemma Wiseman

I've been waiting to get a new battery for my camera and waiting for some sunshine, so it's been back to the files. I had to laugh when I found the second shot -- it's about the busiest shadow shot I've ever seen and I don't know how got so many in only one shot! Not the best quality, but fun!  Hope all of you have a wonderful weekend!! Enjoy!

  4. Sylvia....love the shadow of the glass with the reflection of your Christmas cactus in it ~ it is BEAUTIFUL!
    However, we are laughing at your first shadow, because I was hunting for quotes yesterday and read this one for Karrie:

    "The other day when I was walking through the woods, I saw a
    rabbit standing in front of a candle making shadows of people on a tree."
    ~Stephen Wright

    Isn't that funny, then you went ahead and put that picture on...you made us smile :)

    Maybe the girls should put that one on their shadow quote page!!

    Have a nice weekend Sylvia!

  12. I also like the 'frenetic' shadows of the second shot.

    The third photo creates quite a mysterious atmosphere.

  17. The hand looks almost like a duck quacking - bravo (we really like ducks around here :)

    The shadows in color are always so amazing - we so often think of B&W shadows, the hues add a great depth. Enjoy your week!

  21. Awesome Shadow Shots Sylvia, and as for your header, I can't stop laughing, it just maybe the best one yet.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Such striking shadows - especially in the first and last photos! Love the sense of abstract in the first photo and the beautiful mellow shadow light in the last one!

    ReplyDelete
  23. You have a good excuse for searching your shadow archives. And your shadow archives are so good, I'm glad you had to do it. (But I do wish you some sunshine .. it's time!)

  25. I sure am glad you have your files to share with us. I really like your second photo. It looks like a double exposure, but I don't know how you could do that with a digital camera. In any case, it is really neat.

  26. that 2nd one is busy, but i like the 3rd one best. :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. The one with the hand shadow reminds me of Audrey Hepburn's movie. It looks chic.

    Happy weekend. :)

  29. Sylvia, I love the second photo...just gorgeous! All the quotes are lovely...

    ReplyDelete
  30. You know I always admire your glass shots, and you've really outdone yourself with that second one! The simple black shape in the first is a nice contrast.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Life and people can be alot like your shadow shots. Real but not always transparent. Hiding but still can be seen.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I especially like you last quote Sylvia. Many boats we would never catch if we didn't even make an effort.

  33. I see Oprah in your header. I miss her show her.

  36. well Ms. Sylvia, you did a fine job on all of these photos. That second one is very busy, but I find myself looking at a lot of different things. Many shadows and reflections and shadows of reflections! Nice job!


    Peace

  40. My favorite is still the lacy curtain shadows on the warm coloured wall. I hope you are enjoying your weekend Sylvia, we have a long weekend in Perth so tomorrow is a holiday too, yaaaay! Reading in bed when you don't have to get up early, love it!!

  41. Lovely shadows, Sylvia. That hand shadow is so eloquent in its gesture!

    ReplyDelete
  42. yes, the second one is a lot of fun. But I prefere the first, simple one. It brings back so many joyable memories.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Love that Jonathan Winters' quote!

  44. You are the sunshiny Shadow Queen Sylvia. I hope you are having a great Sunday.

  45. The Holtz quote is one of those interesting quotes that seems profound but I have no idea what it means. A light goes on not to cast light but because someone flicked the switch.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Those are quite artistc and unusual shots and shadows. I hope you see the sun this week!
