I confess – I struggled with the Mystery prompt for today. There is no explanation except my creative muscle is feeling stiff from overuse this week. (Is that really possible?)
My mystery for today: The Birthday Wish. What could it be?

“For this week’s challenge, find the shadows. You can choose a literal interpretation and shoot an actual shadow or you can play with the light and the dark, and create a moody scene or capture your subject in a rich and interesting way.”
Jenn Hooks
I chose to play with light and dark……
{Early evening in autumn}
{Under the Christmas tree}
{Making a wish}
This post is inspired by the Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Shadowed. Many other talented bloggers have shared their interpretations of this Challenge here.
