The Old Dog Enters: SteemitPhotoChallenge #26 - Shadows
When the sun is at the right angle your shadow is another perfect you. It keeps pace in perfect harmony and knows what you're going to do as you're doing it.
Two Friends Walking in Perfect Synchronization as Shadows of Themselves!
A Shadow is a Terrible Thing to Waste! Have Fun With it While You Still Own One!
To go with this photograph I'd like to present to you a poem by the late great Shel Silverstein. If you've got kids they'll love to hear his poems over and over as my family has for two generations!
Every time I've raced my shadow
When the sun was at my back,
It always ran ahead of me,
Always got the best of me.
But every time I've raced my shadow
When my face was toward the sun,
I won.
Shel Silverstein
I hope that you like this photo and poem.
