Today I was returning from work not very late. It was only about 4 p.m., but this is time when it is already dark in Estonia. I was walking along the boulevard, and street lights were creating clear shadows.Сегодня я возвращалась с работы не поздно, было всего чуть позже 4 часов дня, однако у нас в Эстонии в это время уже темно. На бульваре горели фонари, создавая чёткие тени.

On the central boulevard, the renovation was completed a month ago - new tiles were put (which is alright) and a strange play- or restground was constructed just on the pass way ... and here is a riddle question - who did they do it for? On the left, you can see a table for playing tennis. I hope that I will see someone play there someday, but no one has dared to do it in the middle of the road so far. The swing design has not attracted anyone yet, probably for the same reason. By the way, the swing looks monumental, the structure is very tall, can be seen from the distance and resembles the gallows from some historical film in height.На центральном бульваре месяц назад закончили ремонт - положили новую плитку и соорудили вот такую площадку. Всё бы хорошо, но расположена она прямо на дороге, в проходной зоне, и вызывает много вопросов. Слева виден стол для игры в настольный теннис. Надеюсь, что когда-нибудь увижу, как кто-то будет в него играть, но пока никто не рискнул делать это посреди дороги. Сооружение с качелями тоже пока никого не привлекло, возможно, по этой же причине. Кстати, выгдядят качели монументально, конструкция высокая, видна издалека и очень напоминает виселицу из какого-нибудь исторического фильма.

Green hammocks, five in number, look beautiful, but I find it difficult to imagine someone in their right mind able to lie in them relaxingly in the path of passers-by. Well, I will also add that the air temperature this afternoon was +1 degree Celsius. Before that, it had been raining almost all week.Зелёные гамаки в количестве пяти штук выглядят красиво, но мне трудно представить кого-то в здравом уме расслабленно возлегающим на пути у прохожих. Да, еще добавлю, что температура воздуха сегодня днем была +1 градус Цельсия. А до этого почти всю неделю лил дождь.

These swings, in the number of three pieces, look quite cute, and they have wonderful shadows.Эти качели, в количестве трех штук, выглядят вполне симатично, и тени у них замечательные.

In my opinion, the only thing that is appropriate on the boulevard and in our climate is this construction with metal barriers (or what should you call them correctly?) It can be interesting and useful for children and youngsters.Пожалуй, единственное, что уместно на бульваре и в нашем климате - это вот эти металлические барьеры (или как их правильно назвать?). Детям и молодёжи может быть интересно и полезно.

Wooden benches - they are good to have at any public place. They produce nice shadows, too.Деревянные скамейки - они хороши в любом общественном месте. И тени они тоже создают красивые.

This post was downvoted because I feel @ecency is not allowing me to use my points which creates a double standard when I have to look at your promoted post, but do not have the same treatment myself when I try to redeem points.

That is very strange and not fair what you do! Why have you decided to punish me for what I am not guilty in???? Absolutely unfair!!! Why don't you ask your question to @ecency instead? Should I start downvote you like you do with others? You do terrible things!

Do whatever you want, hive is a broken platform that the developers have abandon to support splinterlands content it seems as a priority over the original users who have been here since 2016.

But why have you chosen me for your fight with Hive? You were not happy when others downvoted you, and now you do that to me! My post is a participation in the contest where we present pictures of shadows. What hurts you in the content of it? You do disgusting things!

Because your post was in the sponsored section of my ecency feed and thats the double standard I want to expose.

Why do I have to see your content if I myself can not promote my content?

Sorry, but you sound stupid. Lots of people promote their posts, will you downvote every of them just because you have a problem with @ecency? Anyway, I do not make you read my post, neither do the others If it is an action against ecency, speak to them, do not do such jealous things to others. I have done nothing against you or your posts, so please leave me without your dishonest attention.

Actually you do, you made the decision to promote your post. Ecency just offered the service, you are the one promoting on it.

I am a free speech advocate, and have been reassured by the top whales on hive, that you are perfectly fine after a downvote and this is good for the network.

nice collection of night shadows. these days are so gray and cloudy so i am missing out on shadow hunting. i usually avoid night walks but maybe i will have to go out when the lights are on and see what i can find.

We can be called "luckier" 😁 in this respect because Estonia has a very long part of a day when the lights are on in this dull period of a year. Nearly no sun but lots of street lights helping to produce shadows. 😁
