My Entry for Shadow Hunters Community Contest/Show Me a Shadow: Round 344 - Variegated Bromeliad Shadows - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Big Island, Hawai'i - Thursday, October 24, 2024

Warm greetings fellow shadow hunters! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

For my very late entry in Shadow Hunters Community Contest/Show Me a Shadow: Round 344, I'd like to share a batch of photos that I took today in the afternoon, of the gorgeous play and dance of sunlight and shadows on the leaves of the variegated form of the blushing bromeliad - Neoregelia carolinae f. tricolor, that's growing up a Christmasberry tree near the Landing. It's a magical sight when these plants are illuminated by the sun, which is why they're a frequent subject for my photography.

The contrast between the green and the white portions of their leaves is immensely enhanced when they are backlit by sunlight, which makes any shadows positively pop, practically begging to be captured in photos, which I happily did. I hope that you enjoy them as much as I did when I took them! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
