Shadow Shot Sunday

There is something about shadows. Most times a photographer tries to avoid shadows. But for Shadow Shot Sunday, shadows are what photographers seek.

I turned to myself for creating shadows - quite a different "portrait".

I tried to get a photo of a dragonfly - got more shadows than bug!

Be sure to check out the other great photographers at Hey Harriet!

These challenges you are doing must really be making you aware of your surroundings looking for the things you want to shoot. A great way to be in the moment. I like your dragonfly shot expecially.
Take care.

Great shots! Dragonflies are tricky to catch so you did well to capture one at all :)

Fighting my dog to get out of the front seat of my truck to take a picture of a butterfly poised on a stump, camera in hand I crept to the stump ,aimed and took the shot...but the timid creature was no where to be found in the shot...am I that slow...? I love digital...delete!

Have a great day!

"Crazy photographers seeking shadows" We think that Tracy needs to post this "ad" on her blog! Great self shadows - and even though the bug didn't cooperate - you still scored!
