Shadow Shot Time
I struggled to get a shadow shot for today .. I literally just shot this from the deck door this morning.
We have had wicked weather for the last two weeks .. rain snow rain WIND .. in actuality "winter" weather!
So I thought this shot of our budding vine had a few things to say.
"I'm alive !! .. my buds are breaking and I have held on to make it to Spring !"
" yes .. I do have remnants of my winter death still holding on in the form of dried up foliage .. but that gives way to my buds and leaves"
" finally ... my shadow self .. in between life and death here ... not one or the other .. but here all the same"
OK .. I have a headache after all that philosophical talk first thing in the morning !

Nice to see your vine budding. Nasty frost overnight, I did remember to bring in some plants I had started but forgot the hummingbird feeder and yep, it was frozen this morning. It's now defrosting on the counter while I make new food. The sun is out this morning, but it is fooling us, it isn't really warm yet but at least the rain and wet snow have stopped.
This weather is so frustrating isn't it? Just weeks ago you were blissfully working in the garden in a t-shirt if I remember correctly. It's 5 degrees and windy as all get out here. There's no way I'm stepping foot outside the door today but I'm eyeing the garden from the window wistfully thinking about all the work to be done.
We have had some miserable weather for sure! Snow in April is pure misery. Yesterday was warmer, but still darn cold. Things are budding out here as well. The rain/snow at least helped in delivering some much needed moisture. Have yourself a wonderful weekend Joy!
how pretty.
A shadow shot from the back door is better than no shadow shot at all!
Seeking Clarity—and Shadows
Great composition in this shot. The additional philosophical explanation explanation makes it even better! ;) The weather has been so wild this year - I hope our tomatoes and squash can survive the onslaught of bugs I foresee in their future! It's quite a battle!
Wow!
Our grapes are flowering and beginning to show signs of fruiting, we may actually get some this year. Good luck with your vines!
So pretty Joy!! Thanks for visiting my blog. :)
You found a great one!
Your words always give me a smile.
Have a great week!
Very creative and clever! The angled woods in the photo add an artistic dimension to the shadows and light!
Oh I love this shot.
Thank you for your contribution to Shadow Shot Sunday 2!
Luscious shadows. Have a safe and happy weekend!
Gorgeous!
Hope you'd come by and see my Shadows. Enjoy your weekend!
Curve against criss-cross! Very natty.

Lovely photo and wonderful story from the plants view. I love it!
Thank you all for being so sweet for stopping by and leaving a comment .. I am in garden mode so this aching body can hardly sit here long enough to "chat" back with you .. my apologies !!
Thanks again !
Joy : )
Got a chuckle from your post. Loved the shadow! Is spring here to stay finally??
I LOve it!!!! Watching your Garden Grow--Great shot!

You really did hit the jackpot with this one. When you think there is nothing to shoot, suddenly something appears before your eyes. I love this one. When the shot is unexpected it is all the better. Nice capture. genie
hold on...spring has a strong hold...that yucky weather can't last forever. it was beautiful weather here today. sunny 64. AND no wind. we did yard work today. felt wonderful to get that task done. great capture of the little shadowy buds!!!
Yes very, very wacky weather.
I feel like March and April have done a doe C-doe (i have never spelled that before...)
Pretty good shot you got from your back door.
Cheers,
Leah
