This is my entry for the shadow contest/smash round (383), the zombie on my wall

this is my entry photo

One evening, I was sitting quietly in my room when something caught my eye. A strange shadow was on my wall, and honestly, it looked like a zombie straight out of a horror movie. It had a crooked head, long fingers, and a hunched back. I froze for a second, just staring at it.

I turned to figure out what was casting the shape, and it turned out to be my sweater on the back of a chair, a broom, and my bag, all mixed together. The sunlight coming through the window had hit them just right, creating the perfect creepy shadow.

there are other shadows that i took yhe pictures too but non caught my attention like the first two.

That moment reminded me how shadows can tell stories. Just from a few objects and some light, my mind created a full zombie scene. It made me realize how powerful our imagination can be, even in the most unexpected places.

This is why I love shadows, they’re silent, mysterious, and sometimes a little spooky. And that zombie shadow? I’ll never forget it.

All photos are mine.
