Shadow Shot #20

"When each day is the same as the next, it's because people fail to recognise the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises." Paulo Cohelo, The Alchemist

... and every day that the sun rises, there's the perfect chance of delighting in shadows!

We had a little park picnic yesterday and it was a very hot, sunny day - perfect for shooting shadows!


(It was so very hot and sunny!)

Head on over to Hey Harriet for more sensational shadows!
... and, if you haven't already, head on over to the BrisStyle blog for your chance to win some very cool goodies!

Happy Sunday everyone!

Hey Harriet said...

Haha! Sweet Repose thinking it is a torture device. Yeah I kinda see that now. I love the Paulo Cohelo quote. Right On! The swing shot is great! You are much smaller than I imagined ;)

Love the mystery of the first shadow but that last one is so dramatic! Great contrast!

Both are great shots. The first was mysterious, until I wrinkled my brow and figured it out! I love the 2nd, swinging, shot. Wonderful.

These are great shots, the out strecthed arms take me straight back to being a kid on a swing - and the sense of freedom that seemed to bring!
