Shadow Shot Sunday #23
Howdy! I was lucky enough to have three awards passed along to me over the last week, so I’d like to thank those three fine folk. Em (EmBelISH), Sandra (Bubble Babble & Aimer) and Lisa (Lisa’s Retro Style), thanks ever so much! I love you guys and I always enjoy visiting your wonderful blogs. Your kindness inspired me to make a little something in return. So there is a small surprise for you three, and for the rest of the super shadow shooters at the end of this post. Oi! Don’t be scrolling down there now! You’ll ruin the surprise! A record number of people participated in SSS last week. Yay! Thanks to those newbies for joining in and of course a big thanks to the regular SSS players. You all rock! The Shadow Gallery collages this week feature one photo from each participant from last Sunday. If you’d like to participate in SSS, please do! How? Easy peasy! Simply shoot a shadow, post it on your blog on Sunday (or close to Sunday), add your link to the Mr Linky gadget at the bottom of this post, and visit other players. Have fun!

Here's my Shadow Shot Sunday #23
A caged hydrant booster valve I stumbled upon in the city earlier in the week. It was located on a very busy footpath and I received some very strange looks from people walking past as I was crawling on top of this cage shooting my shadows. A small number of curious people even stopped to watch what I was doing. Ugh! It was most embarrassing. For a moment I felt like a city busker. Nobody tossed any money into my hat though. Cheapskates! Hope they enjoyed their free entertainment…
Here is the little surprise I mentioned earlier. It is an award I made for all you wonderful SSS players.
I so very much enjoy looking at all your shadow shots every week and I greatly appreciate you guys participating in this SSS project/meme and sharing your wonderful images. So this award is for all SSS players, past and present participants. I’ve called it a Super Sweet Shots award to keep it more general should any of you wish to pass it along to other blogs that may feature photos that you really enjoy, without restricting it to shadow related photos only. So please feel free to do that if you’d like to. I’ll not include any rules with this award because you’re all a creative bunch and if you are wanting rules you can make up your own. Hey do you like the cute camera featured in the award? That’s my beloved dinky Diana camera. Don’t be fooled by her cheesy plastic exterior. She really is quite special! Happy Sunday!

I am amazed at the clarity given all the angles and distances involved with that shot. And even more amazed that you know what that 'thing' is called. Ha! Ha!
This group is growing and I am very happy to have joined. Thank you also for the award (blush). I still need to catch up on a couple of other awards I've received, so this gives me a fresh push.
I only know what that 'thing' is called because there was a sign attached to the cage ;)
One of these days I really need to get my act together and start participating in your great Shadow Shots Sundays as they are always so enjoyable!
Now I'm thinking...what dangerous act can I perform to get my SS today?! Can't be out done by you and M.Kate now can I?!
Love your little Diana! It's so cute...and such a sweet gift!! Can't wait to get on my sidebar:)
Wonderful collages...as always...and cute titles!
Congrats on the awards..more to come for sure. Love your SSS, you take very clear shots!! Aha..you made an award for all of us, so cool and that camera is so cute, havent seen one like that before..I am probably outdated..or am I? I'll post it next to my SSS award hehe...here's hopin you have a great weekend..and fantastic galleries as usual, big hugs :D
Someweeks ago now, I was trying to capture a bird in a bush at Dromana beach. Walkers stopped to look at the bird and waited for me! But best of all, a bike rider rode round a different way!
Your collages of our shots are always inspiring! Love your collection!
Congrats on your own awards! You are certainly getting blog attention!
Finally, I really love your creation of an award! It is so unique! Beautiful and thank you! My blog thanks you too!
Happy weekend!

Congrats on you awards too - well-deserved! I love Diana too, she looks very special, thanks for the award :)
Happy Sunday!
I will now go to hunt up/down some pictures from this week.
Greetings and happy weekend from New York.
Keep hoping OBAMA gets in!
And what a sweet thing for you to do, giving everyone this award! I'm new at the meme, but I will cherish it. Shadow Shots are such fun!
Brilliant SS T, perhaps SSS shooters should be taking out some injury insurance though?..you and MK have set the standard now LOL
Great to see how much this little hobby has grown and that's a credit to you..such a wonderful host :D
Thanks for the cute award..love your dinky diana camera..it will be shown with pride on my blog! Happy Sunday Gx
Happy SSS!
Karla & Karrie
I love your dinky Diana camera and I look forward to passing it along to my fellow bloggers. A big thank you Harriet.
Great shadow photo you got there!
All the participants shadow pix are well taken & professionally. I love them all. So cuties!
Hope you have a wonderful SSS...
hugs from chilly Stockholm!
Love-pity the bystanders with no imagination.
Nice to know I'm in good company wandering around cities with my camera, getting odd looks.
Ah, us photographers are a weird bunch. Happily so :)
We are much later in global time than you - good heavens you must almost be heading into Monday.
Enjoy what's left of the weekend!
Harriet, I love the pattern of your shadow shot, very cool.
Don't you find it kind of exciting - doing whatever it takes to get *the* shot? I like to spark people's curiosity like that hee hee
Lovin' the grid!
Happy Sunday...
And I really like the overview compositions you make of all the shadow shots.
