Shadow Shot Sunday

I've been seeing a few Shadow Shot Sunday posts here and there, notably at Hey Harriet, the person responsible for the meme, and at Julie's place, too.  I've always loved looking at shadows, so I thought I'd play along.  It's technically still Sunday here - for another hour and a half.

I found these shadows dancing on my walls this morning, as we were getting ready to go to church for Easter services, and found that they made a lovely, if fleeting, triptych for my staircase.

And this one was captured on the hallowed grounds of the Arlington National Cemetery...the shadow of a weeping cherry, standing a silent guard over fallen soldiers.

    That is an amazing shadow that gets cast on your wall. How lucky you are to get to see that everyday! I would totally just lie down on the steps and gaze at those shadows all day!
