Afternoon Sun by digitalrn

Afternoon Sun

Was outside with the boys watching them run around the yard, chasing bunnies, barking at the neighbors, just being a bit rambunctious, then I happened to notice how the late afternoon sun was casting a nice pattern of shadows on the neighbor's yard. Yes, by George, a theme shot! Thankful for the simple things. For all of you who celebrated Thanksgiving today, I hope you had a wonderful time with your family, friends or however you celebrated.

@pulguis Actually, the tree belongs to our neighbor, but I do believe they will decorate it.

I hope that you had a good Thanksgiving, Rick or for tomorrow (I'm not sure when it is) It's amazing how doing a project like this can give you the eye to focus in on these opportunities. Ones such as noticing the pattern thrown off the fencing. You have to love this aspect of daily photography.

Great capture of the lighting!
November 25th, 2011  
Yep! Nice simple pattern . . the best kind, I think. And there it is just waiting to be captured. Great work, Rick!

Nice theme shot. It's nice to see shadows on green grass. You won't see any of that here for a number of months.
November 25th, 2011

Great eye to capture this pattern from the sun. Perfect for the theme.

It's a nice bit of sunlight! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving too. (: My husband is going to brave the throngs of shoppers today--I think he's nuts.

@clarissajohal A much braver man than I. I'm afraid I enjoy my freedom too much, besides, I am liable to cause a scene if I would be run over by the throngs of greedy and dastardly shoppers. Yes, it's true, if push comes to shove, I can yell as loud as the rest of them.

Love the play on light with the shadows here! If you brave the crowds - may the force be with you! : )
November 25th, 2011  
@digitalrn lol I'm with you on that--I plan to stay home and enjoy my peace and quiet
November 25th, 2011  
Such a very pretty shot and I really like the shadow of the fence on the grass. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving, too.
November 25th, 2011  
The shadows this time of year are amazing, no? Not only is this shot good for theme, but Thanksgiving too...to me it just says "family gathering" somehow, even though no one is in the shot.
November 25th, 2011  
This is a lovely shot
November 25th, 2011  
rambunctious - love that word - lovely serene shot

Beautiful capture! I must be getting tired. I know the boys are your cute little dogs, but my mind wandered and I envisioned little human boys barking at the neighbors! I had to reread your post. LOL!

November 26th, 2011  
I agree with Brad - beautiful light.
