Hello Shadow Hunters!
post.I can't believe that it's already the new round and less than 10 more rounds, this contest will celebrate the 8th hiversary. Congratulations @melinda010100. I have to raise both of my hand to salute you. By the way, this is a fun contest where we can enjoy the beautiful, unique shapes of shadows and sweet engaging participants too. In case you want to know more about this contest, please take your time to read this
Monday Morning, January 6th, I went out to check the roses that blooms in our front yard. But before I could set my eyes on the flower, I was shocked to see these two furry boys. I called their name and no reaction at all. I was wondering why would Lemon sleeping under the shade instead of sunbathing?. Then I spotted the green thing which almost dry between them. They munched the roots again!! Lemon was a frequent drunken but what's wrong with Pedro? Hubby told me that Lemon was kindly shared the roots with Pedro 🤣.
Ohh.. there're shadows to hunt here! I found out that my hubby already cut off one of the two rose buds we have. I moved the pot plant on purpose.
Tuesday Morning, January 7th, was my swimming day. I asked my hubby to take me with his scooter to the swimming pool. While on the ride, I took out my phone and turn on the camera with a thought of capturing the chaotic shadows on the street. You know something like trees, roof shadows, electricity poles, cables, people and vehicles.
Shadow selfie is a must wherever and whenever we go out, just for fun. But, I don't want to include something like this for the contest. We arrived at the private swimming pool and I took my time to captured some pictures for a photo chain contest at the flower bed close to the gate fences.
This is My entry
On my way to the swimming pool back door, I spotted this unique shadow on the wall. looked like a bat wing or butterfly but not really. I just took one shot of the shadow and I thought it would be fine for the contest. I never care about anything around before. After I joined the contest for the first time in round 352, I couldn't help but to let my shadow hunting instinct overruled anywhere, anytime.
I was so eager to jump in the pool, so I took another picture as a proof of what shadow it was. yeap, it's a plant's shadow. If I didn't read the participant's entries, I wouldn't have a chance to put this pictures on the highlight, LOL.

Thank you so much for the support
You're welcome... It's just a shadow 😁
I need to join the Shadow Hunters, have a couple of images to share! I like the one with the figures on the scooter. Happy shadow hunting @cicsaja!
Yes.. yes, I'd like to see many beautiful shadows images from your collection @lizelle 😍 it must be interesting and lovely. The scooter shadow 😂 I took 50 of it along the way, but only 3 which really had it shape 🫣.
Thank you 😘
You actually got a lot of shadows this time around 😀
!DIYYes @ozd, I really did the shadow hunting every time my hubby took me out in the morning. But I never tried to hunt in the evening.
Okay
Maybe you should also give it a try in the evenings
Yes, I need to try it one day 😁 I spend my evening at the mosque most of the time and my phone always kept at home 😳 thanks for the suggestion

I would love to see an entry from you!
It's certainly been a while. Hope you and yours are happy and well. 😍
Remember when Splinterlands was first introduced and you were trying to help me figure it out? I never did. Are you still playing?
I do remember. 😍 I'm still involved although I don't play myself. it's by far the biggest investment I have on Hive and takes most of my "Hive time". It's rare these days that I make a profit on the previous month as value has been going down and down for years. I'm still up on original investment though. Last bull they well and truly shot themselves in the foot.
I'm waiting for a couple of things to come into play, that were promised years ago, and then I'll decide on a strategy going forward. For now it's a case of managing my assets as best as I can.
The main reason for getting invovled was to create passive income further down the road. If/how that's going to pan out, in a meaningful way, remains to be seen.
I hope they can turn things around and it all works out for you! My largest passive income comes from my delegation to Ecency. I'm actively involved in the project and my large delegation earns me 5-6 Hive and 2643 Ecency Points everyday.
5-6 Hive a day sounds very nice. But then you work hard for it and it's well deserved!
I knew it! The rose shadow you were going to enter was the white rose that now turned pink!! I did not mean to beat you to it. Purely coincidental. Anyway, your chosen plant shadow is very good. In fact I had one similar to this in an earlier SMASh Round (309) which was luckily chosen as one of the winners.
That's a young banana plant that I saw on an empty lot one evening.
Lots of luck on your entry. See you again, if not here then on the other side 😆
I remember this one! It's a beauty!
I am thinking of composing a post which I will dedicate to all parents and grandparents who ever had the good fortune of reading The Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle to their kids and grandkids. I'll tag you when I finish it. Here's a teaser to the post 😉
No completion date yet. Knowing me, between SMAShing and SMAPping for @nelinoeva and doing PhotoChain over at Steemit, there's hardly time left for other posts. But I believe I will get it done, somehow sometime. Please take care of yourself and God bless you and family abundantly and always. 🥰
I'll be waiting for it!
Cool that you are still doing PhotoChain. You are a loyal friend. I don't use Steemit at all.
I only use Steemit because of PhotoChain. Nothing else. I just got hooked to it like I did with SMASh and SMAP.
Haha 🤣🤣🤣 it's fine, great minds stick together, no?
I have a lot of shadows to put on the highlight, I don't mind win or not, as long as there's something beautiful and unique to stare at

We have the same attitude. It's not the winning but the thrill and enjoyment of hunting shadows that matter. That's why I am, and now you too, are always in SMASh mode ☺️
exactly!! no doubt about that
You have many shadows there
Yes, I can't wait to post them all 🫣😁 I can't create a post with 100 words
Wonderful shadow photos this week! Nicely done!
