Shadow Shot Sunday #24
Howdy! SSS #24 this week! That's about six months worth of shooting shadows. I think. I've never been very good at calculations. It's been fun! Except for a few of weeks ago when an odd man chased me away from his yard because he didn't appreciate me taking photos of his garage. There were awesome shadows cast across his garage and just as I stopped and took out my camera from my bag, the man came running out from inside his house to ask what I was doing. I told him I'm taking photos of the shadows on his garage. He asked me to leave his property. I wasn't actually on his property. I was standing on the footpath. He had the crazy shoo-shoo-away hand gestures going while asking me to leave. Like I was some nuisance dog about to pee on his precious petunias or something. Weirdo! The Shadow Gallery collages this week feature one photo from each participant from last Sunday plus one from the archives. If you’d like to participate in SSS, please do! It's easy peasy! Shoot a shadow, post it on your blog on Sunday (or close to Sunday), add your link to Mr Linky at the bottom of this post, and visit other players. Have fun!

Here's my Shadow Shot Sunday #24
This was my attempt at an arty shot of some hedge shadows. It was taken from inside one of the glass elevators at the Cultural Centre Busway. It was also taken a little higher up than intended because it was spontaneous and so I didn't have my camera ready when I was closer to the ground. And I was running late for the bus so didn't have time to ride the elevator again. I like that with a click of the camera one of my shoes instantly became a designer foliage patterned sneaker. Wish I had matching hedgies!
Just wanted to give you lovely shadow folk the heads up on an awesome giveaway about to be announced on the BrisStyle blog. Almost 20 members of the BrisStyle Etsy Team have contributed something to this. It’s huge! Superstar Bris-blog editor Bec (who can also be found here and here) has drafted the post and she’ll be hitting the publish button tomorrow. Tomorrow being Monday morning Australian time, which will still be sometime Sunday in America. Yes! The giveaway is open to overseas folk! So unless Bec happens to be abducted by aliens between now and tomorrow, the giveaway fun will shortly commence. Those crazy BrisStylers have recently given me access to the BrisStyle blog anyways, so should Bec be abducted by aliens overnight, I’ll pop in and hit the publish button myself. Then organise the search party for Bec. Priorities! So, cool free stuff will be happening. Rain, hail or shiny suspicious spacecrafts!
Happy Sunday!

And your collages are beautiful, filled with interesting contrasts! And always enjoy your intriguing titles for each one!
Happy weekend!
6 months...hard to believe it's been that long. What a wonderful thing you have started T, everyone looks so forward to catching a shadow for SSS, it just about killed me not to participate in the last two! :)
Your shadow shot is one of the coolest I've seen! And aren't the best shots spontaneous! Once again the collages are awesome and thank you for including one of mine from the archives! :)
I'm off to check out the BrisStyle giveaway link...thanks T for giving us a bright spot to look forward to every week! xo
Your cool plant/foliage sneaker is stunning.
sometimes the best things turn up utterly by accident.
Loved our story about the grumpy garage man......
Happy weekend and love from New York
I'm often misunderstood ;) I just read over my explanation, and...well, yeah, it doesn't make a whole lotta sense! Usually the case with me. Sorry. I guess you just had to be there :D
Huge giveaway is right, my goodness. And, Alien abduction possibilities, I love it! You're too funny.
Happy Sunday to you!
Secondly...I have no idea what the lift you were in must look like...crazy perspective...one foot on the ground...one in the ether. Very cool!
Thirdly, I am so excited to see what the Bristyle team is up to...lots of talent on that team! I may have to stay up extra late to be first to get a peek?! Thanks for the "heads up"!

Oh, and by the way, let me just say god help any aliens that try and abduct me. I've just had an ear infection, a gastro, and now a cold and another ear infection (yep, I think my immune system has left the building)...so any damn alien who wants to try giving me an anal probe or something is going to have one crazy mamma at the end of her tether to deal with!!!!!
Your sss pic quilts are always a joy to see. The headings are a treat as well.
I hope you don't meet anymore shoo shooers.
Sunday's wouldn't be the same without sharing shadows! Gx
p.s. congrats on your little win..will pop in the mail very soon :D
This week I decided to join in. Hope you enjoy my entry.
Your shot, is an amazing shot although a bit scary, if you think the lift? Am a bit chicken of heights he he...
Job well done, Maam!
ENjoy ur monday...
I don't know how those travelling photojournalists can capture people in the street...I'm too nervous so ask to do that! (and even more to just do it without asking!) eep...one day....
I wish I had a shadow shot for this week- I'll be here for sure next week though.
Have a great week!
: )
