Shadow quote found on Rambling Woods blog:
What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.
~ Crowfoot Tribe
NEWS FLASH!
I am seeking and collecting shadow quotes.
If you find a shadow quote, (or would like to create your own) include it in ANY of your SSS2 blog posts.
(There is now a button for shadow quotes just beneath the header. This will be a database of shadow quotes, so you will see what has been collected.)
Each time it is my turn to post on SSS2, I will include one of these quotes + a link to your blog post.
PLUS
Antonella of Quilling, Art and Expression

May the sunlight and shadows always be with you!

That is a common feature in alot of gardens : ) Only with our fire regulations .. we can't have one .. but if I only use it for decoration ? .. a very pretty shadow shot indeed though !

thank you for hosting SSS2!
ReplyDeleteI used to have a chiminea similar to that one. It is a great way to contain a small fire as an outdoor fireplace. :)
Can't wait what you're cooking for us! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!
Robin at One Still Frame has a great collection of shadow quotes. If she doesn't send you what she has, I can send you what I've 'collected' from her (which will not be nearly as extensive as what she has.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!!!!!
I think it's great that you're now including shadow quotes! This is becoming our "one-stop shop" for shadows! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a very unique garden display! Happy shadow hunting everyone and have great weekend as well!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a large mouth, fairytale size. I like the shadows on the shingles too. Here's entry on Shadows that I once posted on my blog with maybe a quote in it somewhere: http://www.looseleafnotes.com/wp/2005/05/the-shadows/
ReplyDeleteThat's a beauty! I saw a lot of those in Asian countries.
ReplyDeletePerfect haiku with your image Gemma!
ReplyDeleteOK, I'll be on the outlook for shadow quotations. Nice idea to collect them here.
ReplyDeletei love these giant furnaces gemma. we lived in town for several years...and that's the only way we could have a fire. love it!!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking through a window at my shadow shot.
ReplyDeleteMMT, I just saw that amazing hand/arm door knob fixture as your avatar picture .. that is AWESOME !!!
ReplyDeleteJoy
Looks like it's got it's mouth open wide for a cool drink!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to join you all this week :)
What an awesome chimenea-(sp?)...Lovely place for shadows to dance by firelight!!!!
ReplyDeleteGREAT SHOT--and I loved the Beach Shot-0 with the lines, the pier and the background---EYE CANDY--you can study it for a long time!
Blessings,
John
It looks like a barbaecue to me. Great shadowshot
ReplyDeleteI would love this out on my back patio!
ReplyDeletenice piece. It has flames around the opening. Some oven maybe? Nice shadows.
ReplyDeleteThose heater/furnaces are popular around here. Nice shadow shot, Gemma.
ReplyDeleteK
Nice shot!
ReplyDeleteWith one of these, you can enjoy your garden even in chilly weather (although it does seem a bit too close to the building and fence). Great shadows anyway!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shadow shot, perhaps it is only garden art and not actually used.
ReplyDeletethe entry in the container is a Sun. Great. Greetings to all. Have a nice day.
ReplyDeleteI just added a quotation for you on my Sunday Shadow Blog.
ReplyDeleteLove the quote idea .. going to keep my eyes/ears open! The odd portable furnace is called a Chimera and its used to contain a fire outdoors on a deck or porch ...
ReplyDeleteNice shot, and I love shadow quotes- great idea!
ReplyDeleteI love that garden feature. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteI love how Shadow Shots are everywhere...we just have to look! Nice shadow shot! I use a lot of quotes and poetry with my Sunday Shadow Shots, so I'll keep an eye open for specific shadow ones.
ReplyDeleteStrange things make for interesting shadows at the end of a day. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteAlong with the shadows, I like the texture blends and tones...lovely capture.
ReplyDeleteI think it is called a chiminea (chim-in-AY-a) and they have them a lot in cool, not cold, climates. I want one! Gemma, I had a very strange popup from this site that said "Your download is beginning." That's not too good!
ReplyDeleteGraciousness... an absolutely the best evah SS.
ReplyDeleteMy dream grill too.
Happy SSS, although I am so tardy this week-end but I managed.
Greetings from freezing STockholMer,

Ha ha! The chiminea is a common site here in Phoenix, Arizona, since we are not that far from Mexico, where they generally are made! We had one in our back yard at our old house. That's a cool ShadowShot, especially coming from soooo far away as Australia. Happy SSS.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool to see!
ReplyDeleteNice shadow shot.
ReplyDeleteInteresting detail.
Regards and best wishes

ReplyDeletehope you have a great week ahead!
