Poetic Shutterbug

While in Culver City I found so many opportunities to take some shadow shots. It was the perfect time of day, it was sunny and all those palm leaves allowed for some interesting photos. I first became inspired by Icy over at Reach Beyond Limits . She has in the past taken some of the most phenomenal shadow photos I've ever seen. So, I thought well why not try it out and see what happens. I felt a little weird just taking pictures of the side of the hotel but then again it was LA and I was a tourist. I have to teach myself to become more aware of these type of photo opportunities here at home. Enjoy!

First I want to thank Icy over at Reach Beyond Limits for the following awards. I am ecstatic! I visit Icy daily and find so much inspiration from her writings and photos that I should be granting her awards. She is such a thoughtful and caring friend which make these awards so very special to me and I appreciate them so much. Thanks Icy. Make sure to visit her blog at http://reachbeyondlimits . blogspot.com For the honest scrap award I have listed 10 honest things about myself. 10 honest things about myself I love all music. When I'm down all I have to do is listen to some music and it completely changes my mood. I love mustard, yellow mustard. I can put mustard on anything, including eggs and love it. I am the most impatient person in the world. Waiting in lines, waiting for buses, waiting for anything drives me nuts. I despise self righteous people. I don't care who you are if you have that attitude, I don't want to be around you. I am addicted to the soap opera...

I want to thank Icy over at Reach Beyond Limits for this award. It is always so inspiring to know that my fellow writers appreciate what I do each day. Receiving awards such as these are special and very much appreciated. To participate, if you so choose, save the award photo to your computer, nominate your favorite blogs with a link to each blog and post a comment to your recipients letting them know they received the award. So, I would like to pass on this award to those that inspire me each day and make blogging fun and worthwhile. 1. Robin's Nest is a poetry blog which displays passion, insight and a sense of belonging. 2. Reach Beyond Limits allows me to see and appreciate everyday life for its simple pleasures through writing, poetry and photography. Icy has a gift which she so eloquently shares with the world through her creativity. 3. Ratty over at The Everyday Adventurer takes everyday adventures (hence the name) and turns them into fascinating tales of nature...
