Shadow Shot Sunday 2

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

The Cholla looks as if it is welcoming you to its inhospitable (to humans) home. A friendlier looking cacti as I don't see the spikes. Although I'm not getting too close to find out...

Love this dessert shot. Reminds me of westerns I used to watch with the solitary cacti (although it was probably a different kind).

This is a fantastic shadow shot.
To my eyes, it looks like a tree full of critters - monkeys, snakes, etc.
Thank you for hosting.
Have a Happy Sunday!
Peace :)

Always remember, a sign of shadows means a sign of light.
Namaste.
