Our month of squares has dawned; it is time for us to shadow box. I have high hopes this month for a wealth of varied squares as wherever there is light there will be shadows, dark areas, and silhouettes. And these are not the only kind of shadows you can box in and square this month.

The dictionaries highlight that shadows can also be a reflected image, an illusory image, a remnant of a thing, an imitation, an inseparable companion and of course partial light.

Everyone is welcome to join in the fun of Squares, whether you square daily, weekly, at weekends or just the once. The frequency of your squares is whatever suits you and your blog. You can include non squares alongside squares within your post, and double dipping is encouraged. I have done both today thanks to Six Word Saturday.

It is also totally up to you whether you pingback via your post or add your link with a comment on one of my daily square posts. Both approaches will enable me to add at least one of your squares to the Shadows Gallery, assuming of course there are square images in your post!

The tag is NovemberShadows, and using it helps me enormously when I am curating the galleries as well as enable more of us to discover your squares.

These morning shadows are somewhere in the North Atlantic; on one of the few calm days on my return transatlantic crossing in early September. I was not the only one delighted, fellow passengers and even crew, were all popping outside to enjoy this glorious sunrise. Over the coming month I will be sharing more from that journey as well as my archives, and I cannot wait to see what shadowy squares you will all be sharing.

      1. Thanks. I’m told this mental dulling is because of the drugs. And being sick. The combination is really hard to overcome. It’s embarrassing and there’s nothing I can do to make it better. So I’m doing the absolutely simplest things I can because being sick isn’t merely painful and scary. It is also boring. All the things I used to enjoy but can’t do anymore. I’ll try again at least once. Maybe I can remember that the posts have to be square. Last one, I forgot what I was doing in the middle of doing it.
