This is a lovely shadow shot, so sharp and clear. I like the way the sun shines through the crystal.

Wonderful shot. One of those things we can walk past everyday but fail to notice.

Hey Harriet said...

Such a lovely crisp shadow! And the flowers are sweet. I like the angle of the shot too! Or did I just have one too many glasses of wine with my dinner? ;)

hello crafty green, i like shadow shots of vases for the way the shadow of the vase seems to rush out and then suddenly expand into the flower shadows. there's a slowing down when the detail of the shadow arrives. i'd love to have a macro shot into what's going on in the vase - colours and shapes all over the place! have a peaceful day. steven

Wow! The shadow is as beautiful as the vase! Gives a lot of info about the creative way the flowers were spread in the vase! Very beautiful!

I love the variety of blues, pinks and purples in the vase and the flowers-beautiful. Is your banner picture yew? I really like it-that red is so yummy(though if it is yew obviously I mean visually!)

jabblog, PurestGreen, Ellie - thanks!

Hey Harriet - yes the shot is angled, you don't need to worry that you had too much wine!

steven - yes that would be an interesting macro shot!

Sarah - yes it's yew in my banner, the berries are just wonderful at the moment....

What a beautiful, crisp, clear shadow shot! I love it! It's so easy to miss shots like this -- or at least it was before I got into shadow shot! Gives you a new appreciation for the simple and beautiful things around you everyday!

Have a great day!

What a truly beautiful shot! Not just the flowers, and not just the shadows, and that's a real trick to pull off! Nice!

This says much more than a perfect straight photo who includes all. Yes, I like this shot very much, the colors are enchanting too, the emphasis on the complet shadow. Well done !

What a cool shadow! I can see two people about to kiss, and a creepy guy stalking them.
