I HAVE not so much emulated the birds that musically sing,
I have abandon'd myself to flights,
broad circles.
The hawk, the seagull, have far more possess'd me than the
canary or mocking-bird,
I have not felt to warble and trill,
however sweetly,
I have felt to soar in freedom and in the fullness of
power,
joy,
volition.

what a beautiful shadow shot - so subtle and delicate
The shadows fall upon the utilitarian basin as it sits upside down and in disuse. This tub however can now be turned upright and filled with life-giving water to the odd animal that stumbles upon it. Or even a bird or two, as well. A wonderful poem and capture!
A sliver of light—
enough to peer deep into
the heart of darkness…
Stony Shadows
Lovely words and beautiful golden sunlight peeping through!
Good choices here--what Whitman chose and what you found for a photo subject.
Thanks for the beauty.
What a great shadow shot, Robin! And I love Whitman's words! Marvelous post for the day! Have a wonderful weekend!

Very nice shadow, Robin! Whitman was such a wise poet.
Over Front Door
Fascinating craggy shadow on rust! This photo is like a song to old treasures!
Great Shadow Shot!!
So beautiful!! That little shadow on the bottom look lie a mini praying mantis of sorts.
I took a similar shot today of what you have up on your banner. It truly is spring!
Another fan of Walt Whitman here! And a fan of your photography too! A beautiful post Robin :)
to find that bit of perfect light and shoot it so flawlessly is wonderful
I love the warmth of your shot - was it early morning or late afternoon? Whichever it was, it's just lovely.
Love your shadow - love that bit of light - it gets your imagination going picking out what that shadow looks like...a face, a mountain, oh the possibilities (better than shapes in clouds!!)
Happy week to you!
