Long Shadows by Weezilou

Long Shadows


Amongst the things I enjoy this time of year, far north of the equator, are the long shadows in the mornings and late afternoons.

It's just coincidence that I'm posting shortly after Isla with the same thought in mind... http://365project.org/islawight/365-2011/2011-09-28
The oranges are such a nice compliment to the shadows and the black. I love those flowers (?) My mom has them in her garden and I always say I need to get some for myself. The light is gorgeous this time of year.

@hbdaly These are called Chinese Lanterns, and would you believe they're three years old?! They just dry like this and hold their color...but don't look too closely or you'll see the dust!

Love the shadows cast on the blue wall! That vase is pretty cool, too.

Cute kitty

LOVE this! What perfect shadows and the cat and Chinese Lanterns are so Halloween.

Such great shadows and light! I love Chinese Lanterns... they're so pretty and fall-ish.

I agree the Chinese lanterns have so much personality. They really make a charming composition set against your blue wall and your accommodating cat.

Neat shot - love those little lanterns!

Well it's an amazing photo, and I think sometimes there is a connection that we do not understand. At times it appears to be more than just a coincidence.

Oh, I LOVE this! Fabulous kitty headdress and shadows!

@allie912 @chard I finally found a cat that looked right into the camera for me!
September 29th, 2011  
@tabbycat Thanks for that! I was looking around my house the other day and I seem to have amassed a number of cats of various art forms...but then, why am I not surprised?
