Here's my Shadow Shot Sunday #52
Shadows spotted on the roof of a circus tent at the Ipswich Show last week. And would you believe that just as I clicked the camera a plane had completed a skywriting session leaving that very appropriate message in perfect monotype corsiva font. It was indeed my lucky day! I also took my Argus 75 camera along to the show to shoot some TtV photos, so once I've narrowed down the 100+ pics I snapped I'll post some here.
Now for the surprise I mentioned last week. To celebrate one whole year of shooting shadows I've decided to have a little giveaway for SSS participants. It's just my way of saying thanks to you guys for playing along and making SSS so much fun each week. I so wish I could give everybody something but that's really not possible, so I have one prize pack to give away to one lucky shadow shooter. Here's what's up for grabs...
(1) Eco friendly hand-pulled screen printed camera journal made with FSC certified Mohawk paper by Disconsolator (2) TTV volumes 1 & 2, mini zines of 'TtV' photos shot in NYC, including a bunch of stickers by Kate Black (3) Original Yashica-D ACEO sized pencil, ink and acrylic artwork on Japanese Washi postcard, signed and dated, by Gallery Juana (who's also a regular shadow shooter!) (4) Polaroid book zine, a 14 page compilation of photos taken with a Polaroid Sun 600 camera during 2006-08 by vhswins (5) umm...the giveaway logo thingy obviously not included in the prize pack (6) Limited edition signed & numbered Vintage Camera Retro Pop Art Print by Monster Gallery (7) Cute & colourful collection of retro style camera pinbacks/badges by Barrel Of Monkeys (8) Mini art canvas peace magnet, ink on vintage kodacolor II 620 film backing paper by me. (9) A choice of any four TtV photo prints from my shop.
This is a collection of little photo/camera related things that I've purchased from Etsy for this occasion. Each item I purchased I did so because it appealed to me, so please click on the seller name links to check out all of their wonderful shops! To be in the draw to win the prize pack all you have to do is be a participant in SSS this Sunday (as every week, the Mr Linky will remain open until Sunday has come to an end in America). Yes, it's that easy! Once you've posted your shadow shot and you've added your link to Mr Linky you are automatically entered into the giveaway. I'll randomly draw one name from the Mr Linky list and announce the winner on the SSS #53 post next Sunday. A happy 1st SSS anniversary to us all! Good luck! xo
Happy Sunday!

happy 1st and thank you for hosting and for all the wonderful collages you make
In the on-line world, one year is like a millennium.
Well, I must say that is the neatest skywriting I've ever seen. I love that beautiful blue sky. It's quite remarkable how you've been about to come up with such varied shadows every week. This is another cool one!
Better go get mine posted so I can be entered in the fab drawing. Hope you're having a lovely Sunday friend. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!
You sure lucked out with that sky writer! :o)
btw, what was that bit about a plane and monotype corsiva? :D :D :D
Have a happy sunday!
Holey moley - that's some giveaway there! So many nice camera-y things.
I'm looking forward to seeing some of your TtV shots from the show too.
Happy Sunday Tracy! and thanks for your shadows :)
And thanks for the feature!
Congrats on one year for SSS!! I love your shadows and your "special sky writing"! Mine is posted. Have a great day!!

What a great shot you captured this week. Amazing what happens when we "look up"..ha,ha..
Happy SSS..
Great picture of the circus tent. The colors are so alive.
Have a great week everyone~
Really like your shot of the circus tent and the writing - amazing :-)
It really has grown and developed into quite an important blog event.
So many people really enjoy it.
The collages are superb as ever.
You really have done a super job.
I'm so thrilled to have been in on the beginning of it all.
Hugs from New York.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Thanks.
My photographic skills are so so bad that I can not enter your shadow Sunday...I would scare off everyone...Just see the one on my shop and you will realise!
So once I get better I will give it a go ;)
Cheers S x
Big pat on the back for a job WELL DONE! One year - woo hoo!
