Shadow Shot Sunday - Escape


For Shadow Shot Sunday 2, I go back two weeks to the Relay for Life in Shelton. Patti was meeting her Circle of Friends support group for lunch and a few laps around the course in honor of cancer survivors and supporters. The lovely day was nice in temps (78°F / 26°C), blue skies and enough sun to crete many a shadow. Which Patti captured in the flapping tent and my wheeled escape. A great event with shadowy scenes...

Shadow Shot Sunday - Directional

North
South
Shadow Shot Sunday 2 arrives due the artistry of three, Magical Mystery Teacher, Gemma and Rose. I am happy to participate in the shadowy world…

This week’s subject is our family feline friend, Linus McDonald. His instincts include looking out the dining room window – for whatever he wants to discover, That could include other cats, rodents, dogs or people walking by. Perhaps he looks for trouble but cannot act on it, as he is held back by double paned glass…
East
West
So, that is why on Friday morning, he is intent on his look, in any direction. Which is why he seems to be scanning the globe, The first four of these views (north, south, east and west) were snapped by myself in a five-minute span over breakfast.

Spanning the globe
As my views were taken at dining room table height, it seems that the compass needle movements are a static, not so dynamic. So, Patti captured Linus at a random point on said compass. Probably southeast or south-southeast.

Whichever direction Linus points, sun and shadow fall equally on our brave hunter. A cat has no cares about shadow artistry – however, the household alpha cats always do! See more artistry at at the always fun SSS2
