Shadow Watchers


Shadows on the wall of the Brighton International Hotel near Port Phillip Bay

Like a shadow guard
Like regimented watchers
Dark shapes just lurking


Welcome to the shadows of Shadow Shot Sunday!

 Your hosts are:
Magical Mystical Teacher
Rose (chubskulit)
Gemma Wiseman


Shadow quote on chubskulit's Etcetera Etcetera:
In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don't.
- Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)


NOTE: Please do not make your link name description too long.
It upsets the column widths.



May the sunlight and shadows always be with you!

  12. I like this one very much. Very evocative, and kind of 50s looking, somehow.

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