Theme Day: May 09 - Shadow



Happy Theme Day and Happy May Day to everyone! The theme for May 1st is shadow. And coincidentally it is also a Sky Watch Friday. So, I have picked a photo that featured both shadow and sky.

This photo was taken at
Intramuros (the historical Walled City in Manila), the Phillipines. I was walking around when I came across this beautiful and huge tree. It was a very hot afternoon. The cotton clouds in the sky was so stunning. I saw these 4 students from nearby school taking a rest under the shade of the tree. I thought this would make a nice composition.

I hoped to take more photos of the shadow but the cloud began to cover the sun and suddently out of nowhere, it started to drizzle! This reminds me that when opportunity comes, we must quickly grab it coz you never know when you turn around, the opportunity is already gone. What you may get is just a dampen spirit!

For more photos of sky around the world, please pop by the Sky Watch Friday portal.

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
