Stadium stand shadows for Show Me A Shadow 220

in #hive-1790172 years ago

Hello Hello people of the Hive

The weekend is fast approaching and that means a date for me with Sylvia and her coconut bra tomorrow.

On the way there I will be seeing what I am about to show you as the main object for my shadows.

I live right across the street from Raith Rovers football club.

This is the view from my front garden!

I have been waiting to take a picture of this stand with its shadow, the problem however is that virtually all the time there are cars parked there, which obstruct the shadow.
For example the next picture is from yesterday!

I get the feeling that had the cars not been there, then this might well have been a more powerful shadow that the entry I have submitted for today.

No bother though, I shall use the first picture as my entry.

If you are curious this is what the ground itself looks like from my garden.

When they leave the metal grey gate open then you can take a picture like this one.

They are a community run club, however they have received planning permission today to build a two storey community hub in the car park right across from my house, so I am not too sure about that, as that will in theory be busy every day!

I hope that you enjoyed those shadows and the wee glimpse into the football ground, for your information they play in the Scottish Championship league.

my main point of focus? A coconut bra. Forgive my tired brain🤣

hehe you are always forgiven ;)

I suppose you couldn't go in and demand that they move their vehicles for your shadow photo? 🤣
Great shadow! Thanks for entering the shadow contest.

hehe Melinda I was tempted trust me 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you :)

Sylvia and her coconut bra? Sounds intriguing.

hehe yes I saw earlier in the week that she hangs it on a tree when not in use ;)
Didn't manage to get out to see her today, so perhaps tomorrow or Sunday!

A logical place to hang it.

Fascinating shadow captures Tito Ed :) I love them despite the cars hindering other parts of the shadows hehe

Many thanks CJ, yes well there is always a car or van there are parking is hard because it is a main road and on my side of the road you are not allowed to park at all!
So I guess not all hindrances are a pain haha
Have a magical weekend CJ :)

3rd one is ok even with the car. Sometimes things like this car makes it even more beautiful. :)

You are right, sometimes something that makes us thing something is ruined actually gets enhanced!
Thanks for popping in via DP and have a fantastic Friday :)

These shadows are really very obvious and clear. You took a really great shot.

Thanks partner, yeah they came out well I think :)

Yeah, they did.

Ah! So you can climb on your roof and watch the games for free 😁
Maybe start a small business charging a fee for fans to join you on the roof.
Have to set a limit though, so about 100 fans would be enough 🤣

Great shadow shots though!

Hive Power Up Day - June 1st 2022

Awesime, thanks for that :)

You're welcome @tengolotodo, that's a pleasure! Have a nice day 😊👍

Thank you and you too 😀👍

Did you wait there for long just to catch the shadows? 🤣

hehe, no I just looked out of the window, saw the sun and snapety snap!

Haha.. I thought you waited haha

hehe no I am not that patient!

You didn't have your dating with Sylvia and her coconut bra but you did find the pies :) 🦢🦢

The build of the two storey community hub doesn't sound too promising for you, the street will be so busy.

for your information they play in the Scottish Championship league.

Does that mean you eventually have Rangers playing across your street, Super Ed?

Well we are going to see Syliva tomorrow! Hopefully see the pies tonight.
If Raith get promoted to the Premier League from the Championship, then yes they could be playing Rangers:) This year they did not make the playoffs, but have changed manager to a new younger manager who actually was on the books as a Rangers player for two years (although he was injured and hardly played)! So we shall see, there is always the possibility of Raith and Rangers meeting in a cup competition though:)

Cool! 😄
So that at some point there will be that Rangers game in front of your house, and you will only have to cross the street to watch it. Cheers!☕️☕️;)

hehe yes that would be cool Super Eli! ☕☕☕
but look out .... 🍻🍻🍻

I prefer that toast with 🍻🍻😉

hehe beer beer beer!

Hello hello, Super Ed!! I hope you are having a wonderful Sunday.
I saw your post about 🍺 🍻 🍻🍻😻
I'm already on my way there, I'm a bit late with the Hiving, haha. Ageese says hello 😺😸😽

oh don't you worry, I have been late on Saturday and now very late on Sunday too!
Hello to the wee rascal Ageese and how are you Super Eli after your awesome breakfast yesterday!

I'm sure you'd be tempted to probably help move the car or ask them to move it..lol
But then you'd probably just let go..
The shadow still obvious and it does look really nice for an entry.

Ever been inside the stadium since it very close to you?

It is funny, I have been to football matches there. But, not since I moved to this house last year.
Yes the cars I just let them be. The shadow was obvious enough to me :)
