Window/Shadow
If it’s a a long weekend, it’s a pretty sure bet that I am ready to go somewhere. The Patient Spouse is not so much a fan of this habit, so we carefully negotiated a short trip over Memorial Day weekend. We went first to Clovis, New Mexico.
It had been raining all week in Lubbock – and in fact the day we left, there was a heavy rain and streets near our neighborhood were flooded. The clouds were starting to get to me, more than I had realized, because as soon as we got past them and were in sun, my mood lifted.
So, in honor of feeling better in the sunlight, here’s a lovely shadow of an open window on a metal wall.

Indeed. We were driving through a parking lot when I spotted this, and the Patient Spouse backed up so I could get the shot. I had to have it.

Patient Spouse lives up to his name. Hats off to him. I am indeed blessed to have a spouse who is not only patient but enthusiastic. She too is a photographer.

Larry’s not a photographer, but he’s pretty happy to be my driver. The only real problem is that he tends to park too close to stuff, but in the range of possible problems, that’s not only minor but fixable.

That’s a very minor problem.

Yep – almost of no consequence.

Thank you, Paula. When I made this shot, I knew exactly how I wanted it to look after processing; sometimes I get lucky that way.

Thanks, Mr. C! Sometimes (often, really) the shots I like best are of things that go mostly unnoticed. Like that open window and its shadow. Glad you like it!
