This blog used to be about living in Mexico City and travelling throughout Mexico, but I have now moved to the French Riviera, living in Nice and working in Monaco.....Can the simple life be found here?? I will try and find out....

Shadow Shot Sunday 81 - Miami's Deco Delights.....
Recently I visited Miami to check out the cool art deco architecture.....
I certainly wasn't disappointed with the beautiful curves and pastel shades....
In fact, I couldn't stop shooting these delightful deco buildings.....
They are just so so so photogenic if you also get the bright, blue sky.....
And of course all of these shots have the necessary shadows for Shadow Shot Sunday......

Great shots! I too love all the deco and pastel found in Miami :)
A great collection and diversity of shadows.
I love them! What beautiful buildings and what delightful shadows they make! Love the pastel colors and, of course, the blue skies for a backdrop! Perfect! Have a wonderful weekend, Catherine!

Curves and angles - a sort of geometric prose as the shadows go. These buildings of the 1930s leave a curvaceous and artistic look at the past. Styled back then vs. engineered these days. I know the ones I prefer to look at...
I love that style...great shots.
Fabulous buildings, wonderful colours .... and beatiful blue sky!
Absolute stunning shot, Cath. So much to think of a beautiful hot & sunny day.
Hope you have a nice day & Sunday ahead.
Happy SSS...

I was thinking this week - when the weather was so dreary here in Ontario - how nice it would be to be in Mexico. :) But I see you found your sun in Miami!
I love all the curves and angles, and the shadows are gorgeous. That blue sky, stunning.
Thanks for these marvelous Shadow Shots. I didn't realize that Miami had such art deco architecture. Happy SSS.
Thank you for introducting me to Miami's Deco delights.
I love these art deco shadows! I had no idea such buildings existed in Miami! Just another place I'd love to explore now! Happy weekend to you :)
Great buildings! Enjoyed them - I've been to Florida many times, but I can't recall ever going to Miami!
Enjoy your day Catherine!
Beautiful curves and sweeping lines!

Thanks for stopping by everyone - and for those of you who don't know, Miami has the largest concentration of art deco buildings in the world - and you can take wonderful architectural tours of the district with guides fron the Art Deco Preservation Society - which are really interesting...
Beautiful shadow shots Catherine! Thank you for your comment - I try not to overdo the family kitten/cat phase but, sometimes, it works! Good to hear from you.
Interesting buildings!
