Chasing shadows

Shadow is a funny thing. Sometimes it looks as though it is chasing us and sometimes it is as if we are chasing them. Sometimes, it makes us look funny and sometimes they look quite unexpected like a piece of art. But, chasing shadows are quite fun and exciting.

It was a cloudy day, hardly any sun in sight. I was hanging my laundry at the balcony when I spotted it. It was very soft and very slight, there but almost not.

When suddenly the sun shone through, I couldn't help but chase after the shadow. It was a very quick "now I see it, now I don't" moment. Within a few seconds, the shadow disappeared.

I took a photo slightly higher up to capture a "bigger picture".

My balcony had a railing and I had plants around with its metal holders. The shadow created on the ground looked like a painting almost. When things are overlapped, the look of the shadow totally changes.

This one looked like a narrow bird's cage.

It is fun chasing after shadows, whether it is shadows from the sun or from the light indoors. Each has its own beauty and form possibilities.


All photos are my own, taken using my iPhone 6.

Thank you dear <3 All the best for you too! Oo.. very cold there. Sorry I was away. My dad had to go for surgeries and I paused and then, I couldn't find the motivation to come back. I hope to be back now.

I hope your father is doing well. Sorry to hear you lost the motivation. Perhaps you like to drop by once in a while or join noise.cash? A noise instead of a Tweet. 🍀💕

Capture some beautiful shadows. I always take photos of the shadows for a contest.

Yes, that contest is still there. It is one of the few where I can take the shadows of my plants. I don't write much there anymore. Without the contests that was empty for me.
