Lens-Artists PC: Shadowlands

Here is one of those compilation posts I like doing so much, of shadows that I see if I look around, which I tend to do.

They say that the camera only teaches you how to look around without a camera, which becomes painfully clear whenever I don’t have it with me. So many things happen that now I only leave it at home when it’s raining, and I regret it even then.

Here are some shadow glimpses then. Each is not much on its own but each has a place in this company of shadows and all together they are a joy to behold. Welcome to my shadows!

• 

  Let’s start on our beach. The new pathway has been built.

• 

  Towards the station. I like the effect of this roof.

• 

  The gate out of place.

• 

  The gate in function.

• 

  This view always makes me happy. Might be because it means amore is coming home.

• 

  If I were a designer, I’d put these shadows on my dress.

• 

  The unit. I’ve realised something about Italy and its shadows.

• 

  In Italy you are never alone.

• 

  A turtle shadow.

• 

  The one that got away.

• 

  Shadow cat statues.

• 

  Do you see what I mean? Never alone. Pitigliano.

• 

  In Pitigliano with blogger friend Norman Frampton of Thursday Doors fame (not pictured here).

• 

  We proceeded to the San Galgano Abbey. This is the Rotonda above with the sword in stone.

• 

  In Italy the shadows play a major role. Caldana.

• 

  Just the local primary school and yet so thought through.

• 

  Playful leaves near the kindergarten.

• 

  More playful leaves, in Rome. Rome is the light queen.

• 

  But Piran in Slovenia is the light king. Maybe they should meet.

• 

  As for bestia, he’s my shadow hero and always will be.
