[[File:Collectie Nationaal Museum van Wereldculturen TM-20029900 Fruitstal op de markt aan de Ruyterkade Curacao Boy Lawson (Fotograaf).jpg|thumb|280x280px|This covered [[stall]] creates shade for the people and [[fruit]] underneath]] '''Shade''' is produced when the sun is shining and an object, a [[tree]] for example, blocks the direct sunlight so that it cannot reach a certain spot. The dark [[image]] which the object casts on the ground (or on another object) is called [[shadow]], not ''shade''. '''Shade''' can also mean a darker or lighter color of the same base color. For example: in a picture of a tree's shadow, the grass in the shade will be a darker ''shade'' of green than the grass out of the shade. {{stub}} [[Category:Basic English 850 words]] [[Category:Optics]]
