Shadow Shot Sunday

taken from my car window on a stormy day

Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, Psalm 17:8

In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don't.
Blaise Pascal

same view from car window on sunshiny day. I sit here each time I go to the library and can't help myself

Find beauty not only in the thing itself but in the pattern of the shadows, the light and dark which that thing provides.
Junichiro Tanizaki

Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you.
Walt Whitman

Ballerina

Found Passion Flower Ballerina, right there on my fence

Remember, Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but backwards and in high heels. ~Faith Whittlesey (yes, I know she was not a ballet dancer)


Dancing with the feet is one thing, but dancing with the heart is another. ~Author Unknown

Dance till the stars come down from the rafters
Dance, Dance, Dance till you drop.
~W.H. Auden

Light in the Dark 2

After shooting the cactus, I took camera inside and returned to stare up in the tree.

When what to my wondering eyes did appear?? one of the Screech Owls that live in our oak. We hear them but never see them. I run in the door, grab the camera and hubby yells What is out there?

OWL she screeches, not the owl but ME    Alas! it is to dark, he is to small, so I flash him one time  and watch until he flies away right over my head.

Oh, well, can't get the Owl let's see what the Poincana looks like being Flashed in the Dark with the external thingy..... you know the rest of this story.

so just in case you are bored to death with the same old flowers over and over here you go.

Lettuce rest, I'm feeling beet."
