Entry for the Shadow Contest/SMASh - 422 - My home away from home
Keeping it little light for today, I will like to share my entry for the Shadow Hunters/SMASh Contest - 422.
As it is said, heart is where the home is and my heart is always in this place back in India, where my home is. Since it's a big property and I give it on Airbnb when I am not around, I have installed CCTV cameras in the outdoors of my Villa. It is very important to have cameras for safety purpose, especially when I am not there all the time. Multiple times in the day I check on the cameras just to keep an eye, and to be honest, I also like watching it because I can see my home in it. I also have a full time caretaker who lives there in the outhouse and maintains my property. But it is always good to keep a check and not leave everything on them blindfolded.
There are many instances where caretakers have taken undue advantage of properties in their owner's absence. So me and hubby both decided that we will have cameras all over the villa outdoors to see every part of the property from outside. Inside the home there are no cameras. I cannot keep it as that violates guests privacy.
This shadow image is from my today morning capture from the CCTV camera. This camera focuses on the main entrance, so we can always keep a check on who is coming inside the property. While I was watching the CCTV, this shadow image crossed my mind for the contest and I captured the picture.
It's a bright sunny day. While I cannot see the gaps in the gate, in the shadow it can be seen clearly.

It's still a month and a half more for me to travel back home but till then I can always get a view of it on the camera. Some good advantages of technology :-)

Shadows expose what the gate hides, clever angle for a contest.
