I've just squeaked in to qualify for Shadow Shot Sunday! Phew! I've actually had to dig deep into my archives for an image as it's been nothing but rain here in Sydney for a good week or so now. I quite like the rain so long as it's not torrential and there's no wind and I don't have to walk in it!
The window reflection shot is starting to become a signature photo for me I think! I like shooting in windows because you get two images for the price of one! This is a window display in an up market interior decoration store on Macleay Street, Potts Point. I like the red, those chic black and white plates by someone famous who's name escapes me and the shadowy street in the reflection.
P.S. If you like plate walls, you should go have a look at Chistina's blog Down and Out Chic - she is a huge fan and has some lovely examples in her archives! Click here to have a look.
Shadow Sot Sunday is a super meme set up by that top Brisbane photographer Tracy of Hey Harriet. If you'd like to join in, and you're more than welcome to, you can read the instructions here on how to do so!
Hope everyone is having a super weekend!

This is lovely Sam! At first glance it reminded me of a Christmas tree! I'm loving these shadowy reflective window shots of yours! And it allows me to go window shopping in Sydney without the expense of an airfare :)
It's winter tomorrow! Aaaarrrggh! I hope you're keeping warm and have a nice collection of snuggly beanies ready for the cold months ahead xo

oooh yes I do like those plates...Fornasetti's the name...my favs of his are the Adam and Eve ones...half a dozen plates for each of them that go down the wall to make up a male and female figure... Gosh yes have just looked at the news (don't often do that) and you've sure had some rain down there. Hope you're staying dry and warm and snuggly. Thank you dear Sam for your well wishes...I really appreciate them.
