Lake Simcoe/ Shadow Shots

Shadows on house on the south side of Lake Simcoe, Ontario

A beautiful sunny day in January was a great day for hunting shadows. The back of this house faces the lake.

The house seen from the outside of the stone ball that separates this property from the road.

Omigod! That's not a house, that's a mansion or maybe a hotel! Wow! What a beauty.

And your shadowy pictures can't be beat...

Hope you have a great weekend!

What a gorgeous house! And what a terrific place to get fantastic, snowy shadow shots and these are fantastic! I do love them, but like Martha, I bet you're getting a bit tired of snowy shadows! Have a great weekend, stay warm!

The shadows lead my eyes right to the snow clinging tenaciously to the roof!



SILLY SHADOW DITTY

Shadows may or may not be
Patterns of urbanity.
If a shadow threatens you,
Here, my dear, is what to do:
Grab the shadow by the throat,
Toss it to a billy goat,
So the goat can chomp and chew,
Keeping it away from you!

Love how you have segmented areas of the grand house to highlight the shadows! Beautiful presentation!

Ralph said...

This house is a real stunner! The bungalow styling details on the large abode are wonderful. It would look very nice in the summer, yet the snow highlights its beauty so well!

Very nice shots, EG... Plenty of sun seems to illuminate the snow capped rooftop and make those shadows dep and dark.

Peace
