Shadows cannot see themselves in the mirror of the sun - Eva Perron..................
Worry gives a small thing a big shadow - Swedish proverb ............................
Take everything that’s bright and beautiful in you and introduce it to the shadow side of yourself… When you are able to say, ‘I am … my shadow as well as my light,’ the shadow’s power is put in service of the good. - Parker J. Palmer........................You can only come to the morning through the shadows. - J.R.R. Tolkien
With standby hosts: Desirae, Katerina, Suzanne, and myself, Toby! I am completely excited and honored to host this week's episode!
Here's a shadowy staircase that I found recently, and decided to present to all of you today:
There seems to be a custom on this meme to leave a haiku along with our photo, so I'll give it a shot:
Where shall I go now?
So many options lie here
up and down and up
All that's left now is for all of you to join along in the game! Just post something shadowy (and please link here when you do), and then sign up below! And don't forget to go and visit the other posts - it's fun to see shadows from all over the world!
Hello there Toby and this is a very cool perspective indeed .. it would be a great work out but ouch! on the thoughts of it all ? I have tried to link and I'm lost in cyber space still for some reason .. I'll keep trying though! Joy
If we are looking down, we could be prone to vertigo. Looking across, not so much...Nice shot - the horizontal position makes it akin to a window of whimsy!

A most unusual scene Toby! At first I thought that it looked like some avant garde kitchen waiting for appliances! The illusion of new perspectives!
And welcome to the hosting world of SSS2!

Happy Sunday from Fuerteventura, Spain!
Good Morning! Another one of our kitties is the choice for my SSS post.
Wow! This is almost dizzying! It reminds me of an M.C. Escher print.
a very cool shot! :) up and down and up! :)
Got a little dizzy looking at this amazing Shadow Shot. I think I'll take those stairs back down now! Very nice.
Fabulous shot and a great haiku to boot!
You did took the picture so perfectly beautiful!

This photo reminds me of the movie "Vertigo" by Alfred Hitchcock.
Perfect haiku for this photo.

This makes me dizzy a little bit lol. This is a great shot Toby. It looks like a tunnel a little bit. Welcome to SSS2 hosting!
I love that dizzying perspective!
The theme and perspective reminds me on M.C. Escher and his endless staircases. Beauty illusion!
