Hi there! Here are shadows from last March that I don't think I've posted yet. The shadows are from branches, thick and thin, of native Sonoran Desert plants:
Mesquite tree
Palo Verde and Mesquite trees
Saguaro cactus
Staghorn Cholla cactus
Globe Mallow wildflowers
For more shadowy images from around the world, visit Hey Harriet's Shadow Shot Sunday here.
I laugh so hard sometimes at our AZ get togethers....all these people trying to fit in the very little shade of our trees:) You cannot avoid the sun here. Love your shadow pics.
The trees and wildflowers are beautiful. However, that massive cactus looks and leaves a shadow that is so unusual to a New Englander, a thorny beauty!
I like the designs formed by the shadows. The shadow in the third photo looks like a tree. Nice selections. (I tried to view the enlarged photos, but it is not possible to view them.)
All great shadows. There is something special about the long shadows of a desert.
ReplyDeleteAll of us like shadow. It provides us a cool place under the hot sun.

Lots of interesting shapes in your desert. The trees and shrubs show off their form.
ReplyDeleteTree branches and leaves always are good subjects for shadow shots. Thanks for sharing!
