Picture Perfect theme this week is ~ Shadow ~


OK - I've put off doing these - they require energy and imagination - both of which are in short supply lately - but I *knew* I had the perfect picture for this one I think - if a silhouette is considered a shadow ????


And now some rules for the newbies

(not that anyone pays them the slightest bit of attention) 

~ Each week a theme will be posted up on Wednesday, and you are invited to put up your best picture with that theme in mind, it should be just

 ONE and ORIGINAL,

 i.e not off the internet,

Then come back and post a comment on this page
so that everyone can link to your blog and see your pic.

By all means mention your camera and lens used, and if the picture has been altered or enhanced in anyway! Out of the box thinking is encouraged!!

Please open your page for viewing for all for that day...and then visit as many others as you can! Try and post a decent size pic on your blog page, so much is lost if the pic is too small or too big.

The entries will close at midnight on Friday.

Play nice....and have fun out there!

....ooOoo....

I love this shot of Trubs, it's perfect! Yes, it's a shadow....you see her silhouetted against the window but the shadow is thrown against the blinds....perfect!

Great picture! I should find some energy and ambition myself and start looking for some pics to play along with these!

I love it, Mel!

A silhouette comes from a French nobleman by the name of Silhouette, who was the first to draw things on paper, made "see-through" by placing a light source behind it. Basically he just drew around the shadow that the light produced through the paper, so yes, silhouette is almost a synonym for a shadow. The guy lived in the 18th century, to be a bit more precise

Cute pic Mel!

Love the picture, Mel! My vote is yes, since it's the kitty's shadow on the shade, I think that counts.
