Shadow Shot Sunday #45



Alligator Shadows




These wonderful creatures basking in the sun are the alligators of Everglades National Park in Florida.

Go over to Hey Harriet to see other participants and the Hey Harriet gallery of shadow photographs.

Great shots! Bet you won't see anyone else with those! Wow! Perfect for SSS!

Great shots of the gators, but best taken with a zoom lens! My raindrops were not sepia, just the color of an early, misty morning after the rain. There was some sun filtering through the fog (another post from yesterday will be up soon)>

Cool Creatures! But oooh they give me the chills! I think that's one reason I will stick to the West Coast:)

Yow. Great shots, but these guys are best admired from the comfort of a computer seat in Indiana.

Glad someone else had "creepy" come to mind when they say these shots. But then that's the aim of good art isn't it, to stimulate some emotion in the viewer. You got me with this one.

Don't think I would want one of those creeping up out of the shadows. Great shot.

I prefer to keep far away from them, they have so vicious eyes !
