"Don't be afraid of shadows.
It means that there is a light shining nearby."
Don't know the source for this quote, if anyone knows it, I'll be happy to add it.
The prompt for the fifth week of Project 52 was "Shadows." I really wanted to come up with something creative. But...well... Here are my attempts.
First I took pictures of the tulips and their shadows. I really liked the pictures, but didn't feel that I had really captured "Shadows."
First I took pictures of the tulips and their shadows. I really liked the pictures, but didn't feel that I had really captured "Shadows."
Then I thought it would be fun to have a shadow interact with an object. So I snapped Patty holding a Rubix Cube.
Apparently, my children have a hidden talent for hand shadows. Patty demonstrated her ability to make a shadow dog with her fingers. The amazing Rubix Cube continues to hang in space!
Biggest brother Patrick was not to be outdone. He shared his gorilla. The gorilla looks pretty good when he waggles his fingers.
When I hurried inside to download my pictures, Patty created yet another shadow for me to share.
Hoping your day brings you sunshine and shadows!

ReplyDeleteHi Donna,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments on my blog today.
In answer to your question about fundraising with the flamingos...people pay to have a large, medium, or small flocking. There is a committee of volunteers who come out at night, unseen, and do the flocking. Flamingos are in your yard for 24 hours where they mysteriously disappear and reappear in someone else's yard :) All proceeds go to the school.
That's funny! I love the tulips, they are my favorite!
ReplyDeleteTulips are my favorite flower and those are GORGEOUS! I am absolutely loving the rubix cube and used it as my inspiration to think outside the box for this week's challenge. I took some of my boy's shadow holding a basketball, but I went a different route when I picked the shot to post.
ReplyDeleteThe rubix cube is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteawesome photos!
