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

Christmas in Summer
Don't this shadow reminds you of Christmas tree? You will see more of this shadow here.
"Seek happiness for its own sake, and you will not find it;
seek for duty, and happiness will follow as the shadow comes with the sunshine."
The shadow does seem to be like the outline of a Chrissy tree! Amazing how the steps recreate the shadow!
NOTE: Whenever several people try to get on to a link at once,(especially when the link programme barely clicks in) Mr Linky gets stressed and confused! But he copes! Your link does appear once he's worked out the order of the first ones dashing in!
cleverly seen and shot! I've been gone for a few weeks due to lap top issues (fixed!) and vacation! Good to be back. Thanks for providing this site for all of us to enjoy!
Now that truly is a Christmas tree: ) I am patiently? waiting for Autumn .. I have had enough of the heat and drought to last me for a long time .. on with some relief ! Joy PS .. I hope one time some one will find a shadow of a pumpkin ?? LOL
yes it does indeed look like a christmas tree - great shot - had trouble with Linky this week - says my link is entered but does not appear on the list - any ideas why??
I can see x-mas tree but thank heaven it's not that time of the year yet! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!
The linky thingy seems to be not working!
ReplyDeleteIt offers a sense of depth, tapering from the lower to the higher steps as if we look to infinity. Cool!
ReplyDeleteAnd all of a sudden, the linky thingy works!
ReplyDeleteIt's still not working at my end hehehe. I think it will take a while, it;'s that way since yesterday.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend everyone and thank you for joining this week.
Your comment is highly appreciated!

I first saw it as an accordion of shadow, probably because I just came from a music festival.

Hi eljaygee, I am a little confuse with your comment hehehe.
ReplyDeleteSpotted the interesting shadow in the steps. Very cool
ReplyDeleteI could use some of the cool weather at that time of year!
ReplyDeleteGreat shadow.
I like the way the shadow gets biffer at the bottom...sort of like a Christmas tree.
ReplyDeleteHad me confused there for a moment (or two)!
ReplyDeleteI like the varied textures, light and tones in this beauty, along with the sense of depth.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with the first one to comment. Yes, I see the Christmas tree but am grateful it is not winter yet!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your thoughts everyone.
ReplyDeleteHow clever! Yes I can see it!
ReplyDeleteInteresting effect that shadow creates on that stair case... I've posted.
