Sunshine and Shadows

One of my favorite views during the late afternoon hours of this time of year. I like the warm sunshine and deep shadows of the rocking chair and the afghan, both of which remind me of my mother.
That looks like a very special spot

Nothing like a good rocking chair.
December 6th, 2023  
Wow, this looks familiar. Pretty sure we have the exact same chair-it was my grandmother’s. Nothing better than a rocking chair in a sunny spot!

@rensala It's sitting by the front window, so a view of the road and the mountains in the distance (when view not obscured by the Bradford pear "orchard." It's cozy when the sun is on it, like in this photo.
@corinnec Thanks Corinne.
@casablanca Thanks Casa. My mom crocheted it before I was born.
@onewing It's cozy in the afternoon like this. Otherwise it really doesn't get a lot of direct sun.
@pyrrhula Thank you Ferry.
@dkbarnett Thank you Delwyn.
@grammyn Thanks Katy. I thought I would sit and rock more than I do, but alas, the couch is more comfortable. Would be good in the sunroom, but there's no more room.
@Dawn Thank you Dawn.
@cdcook48 I like them too Chris.
@amyk Mine would be a knock off of your grandmother's chair. Mom bought it (new) at a flea market in the mid to late 70's. It's nice in the winter when the sun shines like this on it.
@summerfield Thanks Vikki. That makes 3 of us who have similar rockers (you, amyK above you, and me).
@bkbinthecity Thanks Brian.
@shutterbug49 Thanks so much Debbie.

Such a lovely afghan. Is that a Christmas present I can see?
December 6th, 2023  
Beautiful light on that lovely crocheted rug and rocking chair.
December 6th, 2023  
Such a warm light and welcoming.
December 6th, 2023  
What fabulous light. Can just see you sat there knitting swsy
December 6th, 2023  
Lovely shot Kathy especially with the sunlight.
December 6th, 2023  
I used to have a chair just like it. Lovely light.
December 6th, 2023  
Nice light!
December 6th, 2023  
A lovely cosy corner.
December 6th, 2023  
I hope you take time to just sit there.
December 6th, 2023  
Lovely tones and light - v soothing image

@kjarn Thank you Kathy. I've wanted the afghan for many, many years before my mother died. I need to do some repair work on it as some of the squares are coming unjoined. Glad the squares are still intact. Believe it or not I used AI in Photoshop to turn a CD playing that was sitting on the floor into Christmas presents. I thought it was a good seasonal change.
@jamibann Thank you for saying so Issi.
@wakelys Thanks so much Sue.
@30pics4jackiesdiamond The light is great ... when it's there. As you know sunlight is transient so it doesn't stay there very long. Hardly time to get out the knitting. Thanks Jackie.
@johnfalconer Thanks so much John.
@pusspup You can join our group. Thanks Wylie.
@photographycrazy Thanks Bill.
@craftymeg Thank you Meg. It's really nice to see.
@tunia I do sometimes Tunia. The light's not there very often. I have such a large overhang outside of those windows that it lets indirect light in. The sun rises toward the right of the chair, and sets on the back side of the house.

Looks very special. Looking at this capture makes me feel warm and cozy.
