Shadow Shot Sunday #50



Shadow Shot Sunday means that Tracey, at Hey Harriet, over in Australia is hosting another day's meme, and there will be lots of fun pictures of shadows to view.

Today I have kind of a silly picture. I was waiting in a parkiing lot, and watching the gulls and other birds that frequent the place. First I saw a gull just walking around in circles.



As he walked along, the angle of the sun made him out to be a very tall birdie.



I just thought it was a pretty funny shadow.

    Those gulls can look pretty big -- from the right angle! And shadows are funny, a chair in our kitchen just seemed to get a taller and taller back as the sun moved across the kitchen. Have a great weekend, Bobbie!

    The last photo looks neat with the shadow and lines. I think the gull is on official business.

    Cute! Looks like he's on a mission. Perhaps he spotted a tasty looking crumb ahead and he's trying to beat his shadow to the snack. My money is on the shadow getting there first! :)

    Cool shot. I wonder if he was chatting with the tall, odd-looking bird walking with him. Fun shot.

    Great shadow shots! You even have a double shadow in the first photo, the car and the gull both cast a shadow! You are so creative no matter where you are!

    That is funny! In his shadow he looks almost like a person.

    Loved you very tall bird.
    I think looking for shadows makes us more observant!

    I love watching the gulls in the parking lot, I wonder if they notice their shadows :)

    It is quite incredible how long shadows may be from the smallest things! This gull's shadow looks great!

    A funny shadow and great pictures! I especially like the second one because the car-park markings make such a cool background for the bird and his shadow.
