Sunlight and shadow

With days longer, the sun comes up earlier and makes wonderful shadows.  But it easy to miss them.

Here is my cat, Foxy, enjoying the sunshine. But notice the shadow bar to the left and her silhouette against the wall:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A pillow on the porch couch gives a good imitation of a sunrise, with a nice spray of foliage to the right:

Our eyes instinctively seek color and sharp focus. But the soft beauty of shadow is also waiting for us.
