Shadow play

The site: that unbuilt commercial corner across from the Willow Creek Walgreen's. As I bucked the winds today, I noticed a cloth barrier next the sidewalk; it was decorated with the shadows of assorted weeds. Mind you, I'm known for my fondness for weeds; they are wonderful photographic subjects. Here, in this nondescript vacant lot, the weeds cast shadows, certainly worth more than a glance or two.

One of these days, I'll invite you to my kitchen table macro studio for further weed studies. Wish us a tad of rain this weekend, will you please?

  2. I note the absence of any any eliptical, five leaf silhouettes in the post.
