For more cool, shadowy photography from all over the world, go check out Shadow Shot Sunday, hosted beautifully at Hey Harriet. You'll be happy that you went!
By the way - I have a question for you all! Ready? Here goes: Mary used to host a weekly meme on Wednesdays, called Window Views... and Doors, Too! She recently had to close it down, and I miss it dearly. Maybe it's because I studied architecture, and maybe not, but I really do enjoy finding interesting parts of buildings to photograph! Anyway, I was thinking of starting up a new meme in its place - I'm thinking of calling it Whimsical Windows. My question is this - if I do, will you participate? A meme for one is surely no fun :)
Let me know what you think in the comments! If there's interest, I'd like to start it up soon!
Have a great day all!

Those wind chimes are so very pretty and cast such lovely soft shadows!
Your new meme idea is great! Yes! There's room in the blogosphere for a windows meme! I don't know of any! If you do go ahead, I will add it to my list of memes on Meme-Aholics!
The one-dimensional photo feels here as if it is now 3-D - the further away shadow adds the lifelike sense of depth. Cool in subject and shadow!
As for windows, I like! Such a mix of old and new in New England architecture, this would be a fun meme theme!
Happy sound this picture provides.
And yes, it would be of great joy to search for a window good enough to participate in your challenge.
Please have a good weekend ahead.

Oh, I really miss Windows and Doors! It gave me a whole new reason to go out and take photos! YES, YES, YES...I would LOVE to participate!
Toby, thank so much for letting me know about this. I do love the meme idea, however, I rarely have good windows or doors worthy of the name to post. But if you build it, they will come! I'll be happy to join when I have a good entry.
Love the pink windchimes. Too pretty for outdoors?
Toby - Whimsical Windows has a nice ring to it. Thank you for the invitation. Count me in.
I do love your colorful windchimes shadow shot, Toby! Beautiful colors and so creative! Hope you've had a great weekend!

Hi, I'm currently doing a year of windows and doors at my PROJECT BLOG (http://kilelong.blogspot.com). So, I'm all set if you want to start this meme again. I'm all for it. I love doors and windows so.....
Hoped you had a wonderful thanksgiving.

Gorgeous pink shot with beautiful shadows.
I love the windows shots. I'm for it.
Very pretty chimes.
I used to really enjoy the windows meme. I'll participate whenever I have one to share :).

Gorgeous wind chimes and they make such a nice shadow. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful shadows and decor!
Shadow at my page, please come and see.
I don't know how many "whimsical" windows I can find, but when I come across one, I'd certainly participate in your meme.
SHADOWY DELIGHT
Shadows above me, shadows below,
Shadows beside me, wherever I go;
Shadows each morning, shadows at night—
Shadows, O shadows, you’re my delight!

Wow - thanks so much for your encouragement, everyone! I'll aim to start it up next Wednesday. Send me an email at 321toby at gmail dot com if you'd like me to send you a reminder! I just need to get the hang of using that Linky thing - here's hoping this works!
That's a nice set of wind chimes and a well composed shot.
Thanks for visiting my blogs. Yes, it is a reflection of the wheel in a puddle after the rain last week. I also enjoyed Mary's windows and doors theme and I am interested in joining your Whimsical Windows blog.
i would be interested! :)
pretty pics, and love the pommegranite below, too~
Count me in Toby. I have forgotten how to do these things, but I'm sure when I join up, I'll remember:-)
Hi Toby ;-> You left a question on my blog about the question you asked here. While I did not participate in Mary's all that often, I did enjoy it when I did. And thus I shall occasionally link up to your new one as well.
Okay, everyone, it's up at last! Come and see - I'd love to have you :)
