Today’s Shadow Shots come from having been keeping my nose to the grindstone, working on writing up a chapter of the PhD. These are from our front window, looking out over the park, or looking to the left onto the cobblestone roadway. The sun can be truly brilliant, when it deigns to come from behind the clouds.
It’s raining this morning, and it looks to keep it up for awhile. I jokingly said to my cousin that Glasgow had only 3 seasons: California Winter (a.k.a., Spring), California Spring (a.k.a. Summer), Oregon Winter (a.k.a. Autumn), Washington State Winter (a.k.a. Winter).
The idea that temperatures peak out, here, at at most 80°F / 26°C during the summer was frightening, when we first thought about it, but … yeah, that’s about right for what we’d expect during Spring, in California. The other comparisons … well, they’re about right, too. When all is said and done, will we acclimate back to California’s summers of 115°F / 47°C?
Happy Shadow Shot Sunday!

What a gorgeous view of the park. You live in a very lovely location! The view from my window is of the lady next door hanging out her washing… not very exciting! Don't get me wrong, I like my neighbour and all, but, well, I'd much prefer your view!
Re your comment on my blog: Yes it was a Monitor Lizard! Thanks for that! I get so annoyed with myself when I can't remember things!
lovely photos. Glasgow is a very nice city and the sun does shine sometimes!
What a great neighborhood! Lovely shadow shots! I love the view of the park!
Have a great day!

So nice to see photos of Glasgow. That last one is gorgeous. And your neighborhood looks very cute.
Good thing you didn't have step out for a shadow shot. Wonderful shadow shots. Love the last photo.

What gorgeous photos. I never realized Glasgow was so beautiful.
Wow! That bottom photo is amazing! Part of the reason I have awarded you the Kreative Blogger award is your great photos. Don't know how to do a link in comments, so you'll just have to come over to my blog to see what the award is all about and collect a badge. 🙂
I love your shot of the shadows on the cobblestones. Your last shot is lovely, too.
Wowza–that last shot ought to be the cover for a novel.
Oh man! Look at that last photograph!
