Double exposure fun with a photo of my shadow on the house and another of the trees across the valley from our friends home.
“How can I be substantial if I do not cast a shadow? I must have a dark side also If I am to be whole”
Quote ― C.G. Jung
‘My Shadow’ (a poem by Robert Louis Stevenson) is told from the perspective of a child who is trying to understand what purpose his shadow serves. Enjoy ;-))
'My Shadow'
~~~I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.
He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow—
Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller like an india-rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little that there's none of him at all.
He hasn't got a notion of how children ought to play,
And can only make a fool of me in every sort of way.
He stays so close beside me, he's a coward you can see;
I'd think shame to stick to nursie as that shadow sticks to me!
One morning, very early, before the sun was up,
I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup;
But my lazy little shadow, like an arrant sleepy-head,
Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.~~~

Like a pebble that one tosses in a living, swirling stream
And the thousand circles spreading on the water as it flows
Like the starry horses spinning on the moon’s merry-go-round
Like the flattened rings of Saturn, or a carnival balloon
Like the circle path that’s followed by the hours without end
Like the journey ’round the world of a sunflower in bloom
You set spinning by your name all the windmills of my heart
Like a skein of yarn unraveled by the small hands of a child
Or the words to an old favorite on the soft harps of the wind
Like the snow caught in a whirlwind, like the seagulls’ wheeling flight
Over Norway’s towering pine trees, over white-capped ocean waves
Like the circle path that’s followed by the hours without end
Like the journey ’round the world of a sunflower in bloom
You set spinning by your name all the windmills of my heart
God remembers what you told me by the flowing stream that day
But the summer has an ending, young birds fall from out their nest
And already, see! our footprints growing fainter in the sand
I’m alone now at the table which my fingers set to sound
Like a tambourine that cries beneath the drops of falling rain
Like the songs which pass away upon having been forgot
And the early Autumn leaves, encountering skies of lesser blue
Are now painted, by your absence, in the colors of your hair
Like a pebble that one tosses in a living, swirling stream
And the thousand circles spreading on the water as it flows
With each changing season’s winds, you set spinning by your name
All the windmills of my heart
I was photographing the stairs, the chimney, the sky, my shadow... but then I thought, what is photographing my shadow? What do you think about it?
Estaba fotografiando las escaleras, la chimenea, el cielo, mi sombra... y entonces pensé. ¿Qué está fotografiando mi sombra? ¿Qué opináis sobre ello?
Me and My Shadow
A return to a location on Sunday in the Moffat Hills not far from Talla Reservoir that I visited last year and wanted to see it in snow.
A great tree, an old barn and with the sunlight just in the right place to throw its shadow onto the barn.

The last pic always had an eye on me .
Devasted to tell you all my old dog Badger passed 31st of August this year I picked him at 2 days old in july 2011 and he learnt from the best (Sam ). To say I'm devasted is an understatement. Those of you that know me knew old Badge accompanied me for 99% of my photography and I never went anywhere even shopping etc with him in the car.I have had a dog by my side for 41 years of my 50 years and this is the 1st time in all those years I have been dogless.
I cried more about losing this old lad than I did losing both of my parents. Feels like I've lost my shadow at the minute as I'm sure many of you can understand.
I will be getting another dog in time but not yet its to soon .Maybe in the spring I will get a whippet or a smaller lurcher and after a few years I will get another so I have a pair .
Never want to be in this situation again .
Thanks everyone Clive
