Surprise shadow

.
I turned the corner at Terra Sancta College and its gate's sharp shadow greeted me.
It was a total surprise!

Normally I take that route to the American library every Sunday
morning.
But this time I got there just after noon, and the angle of the sun gave me this nice bonus.
.
It made me think how important it is for variety's sake to try going to familiar places at unfamiliar times, at least for us photo-bloggers.

This shadow goes straight to Shadow Shot Sunday.

  9. Shadowy surprises are some of the best kinds--assuming, of course, that you don't pass out from shock first!

    MY SHADOWY FRIEND

    My shadow and I are very best friends;
    We walk hand in hand, though the sidewalk ends.

    No matter the time of day or of night,
    My shadow and I will always stick tight.

    We don’t even think of drifting apart,
    For shadow and I are one soul and one heart.

    To have such a friend is heaven, you see,
    For I love my shadow, and shadow loves me.

  10. This is one of those special linear my-kind-of-shot. The way the shadow winds its way down the street is fabulous. You did a grand job with this capture. In a way it is almost art deco in my eyes. genie
