Our friend, Tracy, of Hey Harriet is hosting Shadow Shot Sunday for us once again. Thanks, Tracy!
I recently drove up the Garden State Parkway - a trip I must have taken 500 times or so in the past nine years. It was early morning this time, and I thought the shadows across the Parkway were very pretty.

On the way, I looked over and saw the shadow of my own car on the road as well. Not all that pretty, but interesting.

Shadows can be very compelling, can't they?
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better .. nice shadows
ReplyDeleteWhat an unusual shadow!
ReplyDeleteI like the first shot...you start noticing them everywhere...
ReplyDeleteYep....we can hear it now....woman getting ticketed for taking shadow pictures of her in her car! {And we thought texting was a problem!!}
ReplyDeleteGreat shadow Bobbie!
Love the second one, the shadow car; it's as if it's passing by in a parallel world, hidden in plain sight.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you are feeling better! Great shadow shots! It is funny how once you start looking for shadows, you can't stop and begin seeing them everywhere! Love the first shot! Had to chuckle at The Summer Kitchen Girls -- woman getting ticketed for taking shadow shots of her in her care! That's us these days -- seeing shadows everywhere!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day!

I especially like that top shot, the empty, open road is so alluring, and you're right, the shadows really make it special!
ReplyDeleteI love the all sorts of shadows. It makes my head work. Mobilises and it start to think and give the shadows life. What I mean, I always interpret what's the shadow's reflect. That's really interest me.
ReplyDeleteYOur shots are well done.
Happy SSS...

Good for you for finding something new on something you've seen 500 times!! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteI 'specially like the shadows that stretch across the the highway in the first photo... I think your roads look so much smoother than ours. Ours tends to be so much more torn up...
ReplyDeleteNow that's what I call a drive by shooting...I'm very familiar with them...was your knee steering the car??? Ha!
ReplyDeleteIn the second shot, your car shadow could almost pass for an alien's space-mobile! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteHello, great shadow shots, reminds me of the time we drove up to gliding club and we had same tree shadows across the road early in the morning, fantastic, thanks for sharing..have a great day and week ahead..cya MoonikaORse
ReplyDeleteOh I had to laugh at your car shadow! It's huge! It gives the impression that you drive a big truck! Maybe you do... Lovely shots! :)
ReplyDeleteI love SSS - it shows the beauty in the ordinary. Love these.
ReplyDeleteI love shadows on the road like this. I notice them too when I am driving but never thought to photograph them, thanks Bobbie!
ReplyDeleteYes, the car shadow shot is great, no doubt a fast one, but very sharp!
ReplyDeleteInteresting shadow

isn't it wonderful when the parkway is clear!
ReplyDeleteThe shadows streching across the highway are very interesting. Like you dont want to run over them with your car, as if they are alive.
