AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

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)

Shadow Games




Like window shutters
Like parallel ladders
Like slices of light

I like the soft natural leaves contrasted against the angular shadow lines.

Happy Shadow Seeking!

What a great shadow shot for the day, Gemma! It does look as if the plant is playing a game on a game board!! Fun! Have a great weekend and Happy New Year!

This is a great shadow - its angular pattern looks as if it may have been drawn with chalk. Perhaps it is for hopscotch, although it seems sized for mice to play again. Nice!
