Shadows play
Within deep glacially carved gorges filled with fall foliage
And shallow grooves in clay created by an artist’s hands
Shadows gather
Around the powerful presence of a goat the color of snow
And along straight and curved ridges in a garden of sand
Shadows play
Among towering sentinels standing guard over thundering waterfalls
And around a grand and forever grounded aircraft

Wonderful gallery! My favorite is the goat.
Thanks, Beth! It was great lighting when I took the goat photo.
A beautiful gallery, Siobhan! Your description of the goat is spot-on, the light and shadow mimic a snow wave in the same light. That's my favorite of your series.
Thank you, John! The mountain goat really stood out in that lighting.
Siobhan, I'm in awe at the beauty these images show. Nicely done!
Thanks so much, Egidio!
I love the shadows. Thank you. It's what we need in these troubled times. Your words
bring solace, too. Suzy
Thanks so much, Suzy!
Stunning. But the pictures feed the poetry of these moments
Thank you! I edit the photos first then the words just come to me. 😁
As lyrical as always and beautifully illustrated. I love the colours in your first shot and the pop of white against dark stone in the one of the goat :)
Thanks, Sarah! Glad you liked my Steens Mountain and Mountain Goat photos. 😀
Beautiful Nature picture 👍
Thank you!
The perfect combination of words and images.
Thanks, Sofia!
So beautiful, the gorges is incredible as is the waterfall! So peaceful
Thanks, Pamela! Yes, they were both beautiful.
So interesting how we delved into shadows in a similar way for this challenge!
Yes, it is, Rebecca. I liked what you wrote to go with your photos.
Thanks, I liked yours very much too. :)
