Marble Skies and an Angel Shadow
Sunday, September 19, 2010 at 5:30PM
Marble skies above the earth:
And an angel shadow. Do you know what this really is?
The heavens were lovely the day I took the sky shots above, but when a jet left its long contrails stretched across the feathered clouds, the effect was extraordinary. That same day I noticed an interesting shadow cast upon the concrete patio. Did you guess a hummingbird feeder?
Sometimes the day offers ephemeral gifts to us, if we happen to see them!
I hope you all have a great week, and may you not overlook any of life's blessings.

Marvellous sky photos ... love the way you arranged on the mosaic! I would never have picked 'hummingbird feeder' ... not something I'm used to seeing!
A very nice thought and thanks for the post.

Have a Happy Autumn and thanks for visiting!

A clever post, luv it! Following the heavenly shots, I truly thought it WAS and angel :)
I love your title and photos Deb. cool shadow! No, I did not guess! So glad you put what it was on the post though... so I could rest my mind. ;>))
What great images revealed. Thanks for reminding me to stop and be aware. Love that shadow. If you hadn't mentioned the feeder I would not have guessed.
Dear Deborah, A touch of magic here in these beautiful images. Light plays the most extraordinary tricks and, sometimes, such as the instances you have captured here, the effect is breathtaking. What a lovely thought for the week. may your week be full of joy too!
Deb, your sky photos are beautiful, but I really love the angel shadow. How perfect that it was created by the hummingbird feeder!
What a heavenly post! Beautiful photos, and yes, we should take time to notice, as such moments of beauty are fleeting. How lucky you were to be able to catch these! I too had no idea. Is the feeder shadow upside down then?
that was cool deb
I was going to guess "Angel's Shadow!" I'm positive there are angels in your garden!
Dear Deb - lovely post title and marvellous mosaic. I would have guessed your angel was a weathervane given the sky pics - never imagained a hummingbird feeder.
