Here's my Shadow Shot Sunday #76
A Halloween inspired shadow shot this week.
With a bit of a red tint added for a spookier effect. Boo!
This decorative architectural little devil was found on a building in the city. It's one of the small number of older buildings that hasn't been bulldozed and replaced with a gigantic ultra-modern monstrosity. Yet...
Now moving off the topic of monstrosity to generosity! The local arty crafty folk of this town known as BrisStyle are currently running a fun competition. BrisStyle wants you, yes YOU, to help pick a favourite design to have printed on a limited edition run of BrisStyle Market Tote bags. By clicking HERE and voting for your favourite of the four lovely designs submitted, you'll automatically go into the draw to win one of the fabulous bags as soon as they've been printed. So please go show some love for the artists and vote.
This is the design I voted for. A difficult choice as all entries appealed to me but there was something about this particular design that just totally had me hooked. I love it! It's by the very talented artist Sally Flynn.
"After completing a bachelor in contemporary arts (honours)I have continued to practice and experiment with printmaking, painting and drawing. Im trying to introduce environmentally friendly concepts into my studio as I believe art is a powerful inspiration, especially when its made with integrity. My work is typically abstract with more than a sprinkle of symbolism." ~ bio from Sally's Flight Industries Etsy shop
It's the first of November today and I can't believe it's almost the end of the year. Being November I thought of the pretty song by Sarah Blasko called Sweet November & wanted to share it here. I went searching youtube for it & then found her wonderful cover of Xanadu so I've posted that one instead:
I told a tiny fib. I didn't post Xanadu instead of Sweet November after all. I really like Sarah Blasko so a double dose can only be a good thing. I'm not sure if Sarah Blasko is very well known outside of Australia, but if you've not heard her then have a listen because she has an amazingly sweet and lovely voice. Truly.
In hindsight I probably should have included some scary death metal music to fit the theme of my spooky shadows. That musical genre isn't really my cup of tea I'm afraid. And hindsight is way overrated anyway.
Happy Sunday!

By the way, thank you ever sooooo much for taking the time and effort to put together a gallery of selected shots each week. I don't know how you do it (would you share your secret?).
I enjoy looking at the shots in the gallery format as it has such a different feel to it when they are side by side.
Thank you!!!
sarah blasko does have a sweet voice...thanks for sharing her with us.
happy sss!!!
I voted for the same bag - enigmatic is the perfect word for it, and I'm always fascinated by strangeness.
And thanks for introducing me to that music! I'll have to look for more of her work.
Hope your Halloween was happy! Here in the sates we're just getting started.
"and hindsight is overrated anyway" I'd like to agree with that!
have a happy week.
Happy Halloween!!
I like the bag design in the way the two parts of the bird are positioned - opposite from what you might expect.
Don't worry about not including me in the collage - I didn't realize the size - not sure how to change it. I just really enjoy the challenge!
Thanks for holding this great challenge.
Enjoy!
Sylvia
You're a very busy girl! Have a great week ahead!
Sarah Blasko has a sweet voice with a husky innocence a little like Mary Hopkins' voice years ago.
And you Etsy people certainly know how to get attention in the most beautiful way! What great ideas you have!
Happy weekend! Mine is a long weekend with Melbourne Cup! (That's the good news!) The bad news is I have heaps of school marking + reports to write! Waaah! But I love teaching! (Except at report time!)
Happy SSS.
and thanks, I needed some sweet soft music to calm my nerves after coming face to face with the devil ;)
Now I'm off to download some Sarah Blasko tracks.
I do like the red effect. Cool!
This week I give you my first shadow. May it bee many more.
(I really marvel at the intricate, sculptural work that they used to apply to buildings. We've seen a lot torn down over here as well... very sad 'cause when it's gone it's gone.)
Will be sure to check out the links and the music, thanks for sharing! (And I can't believe it's November either, how did that happen?!?)
Thanks for the shadow galley mosaics and the links. I'll check them out as time permits.
Hugs and blessings,
The red adds a devilish look to the
mask.
Happy Halloween, Tracy.
Thanks for hosting :)
Have a great week everyone.
I prefer the originaI, I think.
I had my post all set for Halloween then didn't link up. Got a bit busy last evening! I am going to blog about it soon..
I love looking at the collages you create. That must take a lot of time. Thanks for hosting this fun meme.
Happy November!
this is a very fun meme!
Paz
Oh and btw loove your taste in music, it resembles mine..;)
anyhoo I'm pumped to start this.
take care!! :)
So busy nowadays at work, T! I was here anyways to check the SS collage of course, although wasn't joining. Awful feelings.
You rock with that fantastic art. Awesome shadow, huh?
Hugs to you...
Thank you for including my SS in this week's feature!
The patio table/chairs feature reminds me of other playground SS I took but haven't posted yet. Perhaps I'll do them next week if that's allowed.
I've not heard the name of Sarah Blasko before, but I've heard her voice, or the voice of someone just like her. I like it very much -- thanks for sharing! A not too well known but awesome singer is Eva Cassidy. I'm not sure how to post music on my blog yet, though.
I like the red tint you added to your devilish shot! It really conveys a sense of the Underworld.
I hope you're enjoying the Springtime!
How about a Shadow at the Airport for my entry?
I've only visited a few shadow shooters so far. I had a busy weekend. But I did want to let you know I am about to post the "answer" to my mystery shadow photo. Hope you can stop by!

I like your Sweet November song you have posted. Her voice reminds me of Lenka or Fiest. Anyway, I have never heard of her before, so thanks for the introduction! :)
