Shadow Shot Sunday


Yesterday was Canada Day and we saw fireworks last night - fantastic display in Ottawa! Over 300,000 people were on hand there to see the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Will and Kate did not disappoint!




We went to a local nursery in the afternoon and I took my camera as I knew the flowers would be gorgeous - and they were. I also got some shadows!








(Couldn't resist this shadow!)


Be sure to check out the wonderful shadow-chasers at Hey Harriet!, that super fun meme hosted by Tracy.

Can only see 3 of your pics but those 3 look very nice. Great shadows!

Your national flag in the shadows sort of reflects how you feel about your current government, I suppose.

SHADOW, BE TRUE

My shadow has come out to play.
Oh, shadow, please don’t run away!
Stay here by my side,
Pretend you’re my bride—
Be true to me now and alway!

even tho I live in the US, I think the Maple Leaf, symbol of the Confederation, is magnificent! The new royal couple do not seem to have any airs, haughty or otherwise, and natural looking with, I assume, nary a curtsey in sight...

Lovely flowers and shadows, too. Captured so well! Happy Canada Day!
