Okay, I'm going to be a little tricky on this one. It goes like this:
A friend of mine and I were walking out to get a better vantage point on the upcoming Sunset Over Saltair (See yesterday's post) when I glanced down and SPOTTED our long shadows on the SPOTTED gravel. I had already noticed the SPOT in the sky of the rising moon so I snapped a photo to share with you for our SPOTTED theme this week.
If you have looked carefully you have SPOTTED a few changes in my post format since last time you were here.
1. New frame around every photo which is created by using the photo itself blurred in the background and then a shadow & glow effect added to separate the two.
2. Improved signature on the photo adding the © symbol and the year.
3. You probably didn't notice before, but the photograph was always cut off on the right side. It was driving me nuts but became painfully obvious when I added the border effect. Thanks to Els that is now fixed. More about that here.

I love hearing from my visitors! Don't be shy - leave a comment.

I did SPOT your changes. I like the new style, it's SO professional and sleek. Can I have your autograph?!
the first thing I saw is the moon but the shadows of the two figures added an interesting angle
I spotted the changes right away. Very professional looking... Spot On!
You sure are extra-tall!

I like the changes. That framing effect is pretty classy.
I love your overall take...sand, shadow, new watermarks and all!
I love the overall effect!
I could have sworn I'd commented earlier but I may have been diverted by your borders. I'm sure I said I loved the picture and admired your long, long, legs. :)
What a cool shot and great take on the theme. Happy weekend.
Beautiful. Fascinating photo.
I'm trying to comment on your Sunset Over Saltair photo, but I keep being redirected here.
Anyway, this one is nice too, but I really love the golden amber color of your sunset photo.
A truly awesome photo and a very creative take on the theme. I like it a lot! Happ weekend.

This is a very classic shot, one that I've yet to captured yet.
Extremely cool, and will make a great framed picture :)
Have a good Sunday!!
Wow! Just amazing. Love this one. ;-)
Happy PH!
What do you think of this? -> Mariposa's PH
The long shadows are nice. Re the signature: that's distinct and unobtrusive -- like it. If it's easy enough to do, can you pass along directions as to how to do that to me?
this is very nice. i love the sig and the way the border kind of give emphasis on the pic. one of the best!
That's two Daddy longlegs ! Lol !
i like the changes you've made and i definitely like the shadow shot:)
Wow! It was one of the nicest entries I saw this week.
Great post! I love the effect with the frame. :-)
I just love your creative take on this challenge!
Great photo. I have enjoyed your blog. I'll be back.
Great picture. I enjoyed my visit. Actually, it occurred to me that my life would be much simpler if I could discipline myself to only posting one picture for photohunt. Maybe next time.
That is an amazing shot I can really see the moon. Thanks for sharing
Great shoot! Thanks for dropping by!
Very good spotted photo. I love the border that you're using. It was the first thing I spotted when I came to your blog.

I like your creativity with the "spotted" theme! When I opened your blog I "spotted" some amazing photographs! Wow!

Nice take on the shadows! Would you like to exchange link with me?
Found you through Country Girl Kate. What a terrific photo! The shadows themselves would have been great, but the moon is like icing on the cake. :)
Lovely shadows! Thanks for visiting my Photo Hunt post!
