The Weather Vane

©
We had some lovely days in the second half of March and of course I fell to temptation and put out some of the garden decorations.  I only chose those ones that I knew could withstand the cold nights we were still getting.
One was this lovely weather vane that was given to me by a friend.  I set it on top of the posts in my farmyard garden (more about that later) and then noticed the wonderful shadow it cast on the wall.  Perfect for capturing through my lens.
 
It is perfect for sharing with Shadow Shot Sunday. Stop by and see some great shadow shot photos.
 
I've been neglecting my blog posts for awhile, guess I just needed a break.
Thanks for visiting. Have a great day.

  9. Hey there Linda girl that is a perfect shadow shot : ) yes a few great sunny days really make a difference don't they ? I understand the need for a break .. I am torn between so many things to do I think my head will explode? haha .. part of it is decompressing from such a long winter I think .. so we all need to have an ah ha ! moment ? ;-)

  14. Most appropriate for this time of year - the weather indicator and its shadow. I feel much more "waiting on spring" than in previous years. And the idea that we can block the sun and produce a shadow - always fascinating.

  16. I've not felt like blogging much these past few weeks either. I'm wondering if it's the change of seasons, leaving us feeling a shift? no matter, you've captured a fun shadow here with your weather vane. soon you'll be out in the garden with your hands in the dirt, and won't that feel good? I love that time. I hope you have a fabulous week!

  17. We are still having cold nights AND days here too - even some speculation we might have a freeze again tonight.

    I am so anxious for the spring to really get here. And so, by the looks of things, are my plants!

    LOVE the weather vane. Luck you! You definitely have some of the coolest garden art.
