playful

Phoenix, Arizona

the animated shadows from a prickly pear cactus evoked cartoonish figures here...best to stay as playful as possible on the road...sitting on gravel for the shot was not so pleasant, yet a small sacrifice in the end

I hope you broke up the fight going on in the lower left corner.

Really like those strong shadows, looking like Mickey Mouse ears. I like the 'yard art' as I collect Suns and have my collection throughout my front and back yard.

They're dancing for you David - well worth grovelling in gravel :) V

Yes, playful and fun. Looks like very bright sunlight for those great shadows.

Looks like a rough place for a stray cat to navigate!

A great study of the interplay between their shadows and the cacti themselves. Excellent framing and exposure. ~V~

A very nice play on light and shadows, David! I could sit on the gravel as long as you could pull me up.. :))
