THE MEANING OF AUTUMN
Autumn is the bridesmaid of Summer and the flowergirl of Winter.
Autumn whispers the tones of yesterday in a minor key.
~ Gemma Wiseman
AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

wow this is a real hit of a shot...a gem!
Beautiful golden and sparkly shadows. It creates a nice mood for the room...
It looks like it might be getting a bit warm outside...but I never tire of that golden glow...spring is all too glorious. I still can't fathom the fact that our summer is almost at it's end, where did it go(besides Australia)???
We are having perfect weather though, so I won't complain...until the cold hits, then look out...I'll be a bear!
Have a great week dear friend...take lots of spring pictures, I'll walk the walk with ya!
Hugs a bunch!

Such a lovely shadow to look at! Love your title too!!
Wonderful photo ---almost like an abstract design. Great golden tones.
My Shadow Shot is HERE.
That's a really neat effect! Nice shadow spotting! I was trying to read the titles of your CDs because I was curious about your taste in music. I'm nosey like that! Anyway, if you have any embarrassing guilty pleasures in your collection, your secrets remain safe. I couldn't make out the titles...hehe :)
Have a great week ahead Gemma!
wonderful light in this and very interesting effects in the shadows
The big shadows sort of distort one's first impression of what the objects are. I thought at first that they were large books or files placed into slots.
Very Nice.
