Here's my Shadow Shot Sunday #154


Here we have some shadows cast from a charming old telegraph messenger bike. And no, it's not from my shed (oh how I wish it was!) but part of the display at the Send: from telegraph to text exhibition on at the Museum of Brisbane.

Happy Sunday!

It's hard to imagine having to ride a bike to deliver a message in the age of mobile phones and texting!

Love the red bike and the shadows! This will be my only comment until I'm moved and my computer up again. But wanted to thank you for the weekly fun! Your collages are marvelous as always!

We haven't had mobile phones for that long - but now we can't imagine life without them ...... and we certainly can't imagine a boy on a bike bringing us news in a telegram!

What a SWEET bike! I would be doing the same-wishing I had it in my shed! Loved the rosellas from the previous post. Hope that jam comes out onolicious! (ono is delicious or tasting good, etc. in Hawaiian)

That front rack makes an unusual shadow.

A great bike, and the front rack is so unusual. I love the way you've composed the shot.

Ralph said…
We can be so jaded about modern communications. Yet in a different time, a speedy delivery was as warranted as today. The messengers provided a valuable service. Even today in places like New York City, bicycle messengers still deliver time sensitive documents that may or must not be sent electronically.

This bike is cool! A wonderful link to the past...

I too have a penchant for shadows & I have a couple of pots in my blog. But, only today I came across your SSS meme.

I've few Qs for you n tried to contact you via email, but it prompts me to Outlook, which I don't like to use. So, how to communicate?

Looks like the bike I got on my 7th birthday. Wish I still had that one!

Nice!

Hi

Love the bike - if only it could talk - now there would be a tale - those rosellas are a beautiful colour - good luck with the jam x

This bike has wonderful shadows. The bikes from our mailman still look a bit like that.
Thanks for selecting my shot for the gallery.

GalleryJuana said…
my eyes are drooling over that bike and it's front carrier. I remember how our post carrier used to deliver the mail on foot.

I look forward to seeing your progress on the rosella jam. The little buds sure look pretty.

And thank you for featuring my yellow chilies earlier.

Have a good Sunday!

Bicycles, by their very nature, cast interesting shadows. Mine, this week, is a scooter. Not so romantic.

CanadianGardenJoy said…
Tracy girl that is one beautiful mode of transportation !! I remember my bike that had only one speed .. ME!!
We used to put close pegs in the spokes to make noise like .. ok .. remember I was a kid .. to sound like a motorcycle .. yes .. we did DO THAT! .. haha

I need a bike like that! Wow.

I'm always amazed and a teeny bit jealous of how many shadows you're able to find :)

Have a great week!

Girl, you just have the best museum displays in your area and we thank you so much for sharing them, my very first bike was bright red, even though second hand, my Grandaddy painted for me...it was special!!!

Have a great week, it's finally getting warmer here...yayyyy!!!

A lovely old bike with a history! To think a bike has moved up into a work of historical art! And love the play of shadows round it!

Once again, thank you so much for including my last week's photo in a collage! I so love how you do this for us!

Enjoy your weekend!

My Mum and Dad call those bikes 'sit up and beg' bikes-have you heard that expression? It looks like a fine and comfortable bike to me.

I love your shadow shot sunday (saturday here in the states) prompt...so fun!

Margaret Gosden said…
Looks like a nice sturdy bike! I have noticed of late
that bikes are changing in the way they look, more
decoratively painted, or festooned with flowers!
It is no longer the manufacturer's name that counts....

Spadoman said…
I love the old bicycle! I remember having an older, what we call, a balloon tire bike. Had a rack with a milk crate mounted on the front. What a trophy, and a great shot of it casting a shadow. Good capture!

Peace

just as I reaied for my shadow shot the sun disappeared- it's only a faint shadow of itself- BUT the post must be done.
Great bicycle shot Harriet! Makes me want to jump on my bike and take a ride!

That sounds, and looks, like a very interesting exhibition.... and a beautiful old bike - dread to think what the control would have been like with a heavy bag sitting over the front wheel!! ;)

Hootin' Anni said…
Great photo...but, but----

I must ask you what this "Rosella Jam" tastes like? I've not heard of it. Now I'm wondering if there is some place that may export this jam to America. I have it 'pictured' in my mind that it's a bit tart and 'berry flavored'?!!! Is it?

Annabella said…

Great geometric patterns Tracy -- and fun to imagine the rider busily pedaling as he delivers his messages (hard work then!)... I imagine the whole thing was was a very interesting exhibit.
