Hmm...a thought-provoking photo for sure.

Are we anxious about opening the door? Will it lead to a stage where a play is about to start?

Nice shadow of the door handle.

I'll be painting a cupboard outside today, as soon as the sun rises over my roof and melts the frost off of it...ha...I'm anxious yes!!!

We have sun too, maybe a shower this afternoon late, but I'll deal with that, cause it will make my hostas huge and the remaining snow melt.

Poor Colleen in Utah got 6 more inches...I would have to break open a bottle I'm afraid!!! LOL!

My porch is still in the shade this AM, but I'm thinking of hanging my swing today...a harbinger of Spring indeed...thanks for the java lil' sister!

Hey Tilda...race ya to the cedar chest with the woolies...ha ha...!

The brilliant light should not be hidden behind the door. A mere peek inside lets us see the lightness beyond, and we want to see more. A simple pull on the handle should satisfy our curiosity...

Fantastic!! Such a clear, sharp and colorful shadow! Love Shakespeare's words as well. And, oh yes, we have sun, too today, brilliant blue skies and it's going to be in the 60s! I'm ecstatic! Have a great weekend, Robin!

i love the thoughts about what could be behind this door...this was taken earlier this week with the morning sun shining in my bedroom...

Great photo, love the shadow on the handle!

Pretty cool shadow shot. I had to do a double take as it is such a seamless shape; the shadow and the object that cast the shadow (door handle).

What stunning lines

I'm surprised at the lightness of Martin Buber's quote from having read him years ago! Nice to know he had a less serious side!! Your ShadowShot is terrific...I want to know what's behind there.

Hey Harriet said...

I'm always up for some playtime! Such sweet light in your shadow shot. Gorgeous! I'm so happy you've had some sun this week. It has been very dreary here all week but we have more than our fair share of sunshine so it makes for a nice change :)
