Shadow Shot Sunday - Plantation style in Georgia

For Shadow Shot Sunday this week I'm sharing some shadow captures, from our trip to Savannah, GA in 2010.
I rediscovered them whilst sifting through the hundreds of photographs, that I've taken on my travels with Diane, in preparation of her birthday album.

One of the most beautiful places that Diane and I have visited was a private plantation home

 outside of Savannah.

She told me that the chigger infested Spanish moss growing in the old live oaks 

was historically used to stuff mattresses and why

 generations of mothers whisper to their children at bedtime

Good night, sleep tight,

Don’t let the bedbugs bite.

But I don't know? Is it true?

Shadow Shot Sunday.

I recently came across a great blog dedicated to photography and specifically shadow shots.




Hey Harriet comes to us from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia and graciously hosts Shadow Shot Sunday each week, featuring (you've guessed it) fabulous photographs of objects and the shadows that they cast.

I decided to join in with the other participants, for the first time, with some photographs taken in the churchyard on Wednesday morning after the first heavy snowfall.

The peaceful serenity of the village churchyard, parts of which date to circa 12c.
