Shadow Shot Sunday #43




Our Australian friend, Tracey, hosts Shadow Shot Sunday for us every week, at Hey Harriet. If you have any interesting pictures that you have taken of shadow, why not join in?


Last summer I took a picture of shadows on a window blind. Nothing spectacular, but I kind of like it. About a week ago I noticed shadows on the same window, and the contrast between summer and winter caught my eye.

  1. There is an amazing difference isn't there? At this time of year my favorite would have to be the first one! I scrolled all the way down on Harriet's blog but couldn't find the sign-in place, but I'll keep checking. In the meantime I'll go ahead and post a shadow! Have a great weekend, Bobbie!

  2. What an interesting observation and a nice idea to compare the seasonal shadows. I think the summer shadows look more lively. But then I also look more lively in summer compared to winter :)

  15. Very clever!
    I don't know that I have a favorite. I like the crispness of the first but I like bare branches anyway so this subtle shadow of them appeals as well
    Great find.

  16. What a fascinating study of the two seasons. Hang in there - spring will soon be turning everything green again for you, while we dip our toes into autumn.

  17. No doubt for me, the warmer light of summer attracts. Keen observation windows for the seasonal shadows, Bobbie.

  18. Simple shot but great observation on your part to capture it the way you did. Great contrasting of the subject.

  19. Dramatic contrast, huh? Summer, branches w/ leaves while winter just branches.

    Ahhh... aren't we addicted to catch shadows now and trying to define every inch of our pix?

    Great job, girl!
