Blog buddies and Leaf Shadows
I’m back on line, just in time to post a leaf shadow shot for Shadow Shot Sunday. My dear husband managed to get the modem hooked up today so my life can return to normal. I had a lovely birthday learning how to use a mat cutter to make mats for the water colour paintings I did in Mexico. My stepson Ben helped me and we are going to build white wood frames for them too.
Another sweet surprise on my birthday was a special post from my blogging buddy, Angry Parsnip. She sent me a birthday photo and some music via her blog, Two Little Square Black Dogs . The world of blog friends just gets wider and wider. It’s a special connection. I loved getting bloggy birthday greetings also from Ches at Alt. Build Blog and from Kathleen at Easy for Me to Say.
We actually had some sun today but I was too busy planting and raking to remember to take some shadow shots. This image from my archive shows the shadow from the Akebia leaves on the back fence. I like the way the shadow of string shows its wound-up effect. I hope your weekend is productive and fun as well.
