Shadow Shot Sunday and One Desperate Woman..






























The problems I was having getting a Shadow Shot..for one thing it looked like rain, no sun..Okay..I can handle that..turn on a light and use the grandchildren's toys..It is what we call desperate..Pirate Pete, Lasso Sam and Six Shooter Fred were very accommodating..Then I grabbed a toy horse while I was at it..
Now, I see the sun coming out..Ran outside in the rose bushes and grabbed my yard ornament, put it on the back deck and took a shadow shot..Running with that yard ornament is no easy feat..The things I will do for Hey Harriet's Shadow Shot Sunday..there is no stopping me..Well, my dear Hey Harriet..see you next week...now I have drag that ornament back to the rose bushes..


Till next time, keep looking up..

those were really fun shadow shots -- very original -- or was it a ploy to get in the toy box and have a romp? :) either way they are lovely and made me smile! :)

Debra said...

I reaaally like the horse shadow. I'd love to see more like that!

Wow that's an image, running with the camera in one hand and the lawn ornament in the other, trying to beat the rain... sounds like something I would do! Legos... gotta love Legos... all those tiny little pieces. I know our vacuum doesn't care for them as much as my boys do!

This is so funny and appropriate for me right now. With the sun changing, my usual photo spots are changing, as well. Between the clouds and the changing sun, I feel like I spend all day carrying vintage treasures, beaded jewelry, tripod and camera...front to back, then front, then back...and on it goes:)
I love the pics!
