Shadow in the Sun
We were teased on Thursday and Friday into thinking spring had arrived. The temperature reached just over 10 Celsius on Friday afternoon. The snowbanks went down rapidly, only to reveal that dirty layer by the roads. On Saturday the sun came out but the winds had picked up considerably on Friday night and they reached speeds of 100 km. per hour. What a lot of noise they created overnight. I fully expected to see some damage in the morning, but only awoke to a few branches down.
But through it all our lens friend, Shadow found some lovely sunny places to stretch out and relax. This one shows shadows from the window frame and her just soaking up the sun.
Why not do some blog hopping today ... first over to Camera Critters to see some adorable photos of favourite critters and then over to Shadow Shot Sunday where you can see many more amazing shadow photos.
I do love the kitty shadow shots! No one know how to relax and unwind like a cat! Fun capture for the day! Hope you're enjoying your weekend!

Your cat is called Shadow too? Ours is a gentle grey fluffball with loads of character! But she needs to energise in gentle sunlight - even if it means being indoors behind a window and out of blustery winds! Lovely photo!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could sleep like that--completely given over to dozing!
ReplyDeleteA PARFAIT DAY
A seeker of shadows one day
Did trip as she went on her way;
She picked herself up
And dipped from a cup
Of shadowy lemon parfait!

What a cute kitty! Give him a gentle chin rub from me :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely sunny spot to relax. I think your Shadow could be a good teacher in the gentle art of relaxation.
ReplyDeleteShadow has the right idea -- find those sunny spots and enjoy them for as long as you can! What a cute kitty!

Cats are definitely solar-powered. And cuddling a sun-warmed cat, though it might annoy the cat, is so nice for the person.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shadow shot of Shadow.

Amazing how they always find just the right spot. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteShadow has the right idea! I had to giggle about your 10 celsius temp. The temps climb much higher than that in the middle of winter where I am. I'd struggle to survive a winter where you are :)
ReplyDeleteWho could possibly argue with that type of solar heated relaxation?
ReplyDeleteA cat dozing in the sunshine is the perfect illustration of a contented household...love this shot!
