Shadow Shot: Welcome

Welcome

The sun came out for a little while today, but it was still only 17 degrees out. I opened the front door a crack, took afew quick shots across the welcome mat, and went back to my hunker-down spot by the fire.

Winter Is On the Doorstep

Very cool shadow shots!

The weather has been quite COLD in the northern half of the US. Snow and frosty views at least leave a place for lovely and artistic shadows. Near the fire is the place to be these days...

Very nice. It also looks very familiar to what is outside my door! Have a great weekend!

EG CameraGirl said...

My shadow shot, hope you can come by.

es, this is another favorite shadow shot of the day. the second photo I'm going back to again and again to stare at it. sometimes I think those are some of the best photos, the quick, almost spontaneous ones that we just "snap" and it's done. then when you sit down and look at what you've gotten, well, there's the raspberries. this is one of those. great shadow shot!

I love the top shot, the angles, and deeper shadows of the boards contrasting with the curves of the mat. Is that frost?! On the doormat?! Golly it looks cold.

Hey Harriet said...

These are cool! I like the sound of a hunker-down spot by the fire.

Hey sorry about the incorrect spelling with your link in the collage. I'm glad you realised and let me know about it. I discovered I made a boo boo with somebody else too! I'm good at making boo boos :)

Have a great week!

So frosty...so beautiful...and yes, I'd be snuggling by the fire with a good book and some hot chocolate if that were the scene from my front door.

IF SHADOWS COULD TALK

If shadows could talk,
Just what would they say?
If you listen close,
You’ll hear them, you may.
Shadows do chatter
And gossip and talk
In the store windows,
Along the sidewalk,
Over the mountains,
On prairie and plain,
Begging for sunshine
And not days of rain;
Emboldened by light,
The stark shadows say:
“We’re out for a lark,
Please join us at play!”
