The shadow of rotating HoA (TM) ava-Lifshitz black hole has been studied and it was shown that in addition to the specific angular momentum a, parameters of HoA (TM) ava-Lifshitz spacetime essentially deform the shape of the black hole shadow. For a given value of the black hole spin parameter a, the presence of a parameter I > (W) and KS parameter omega enlarges the shadow and reduces its deformation with respect to the one in the Kerr spacetime. We have found a dependence of radius of the shadow R (s) and distortion parameter delta (s) from parameter I > (W) and KS parameter omega both. Optical features of the rotating HoA (TM) ava-Lifshitz black hole solutions are treated as emphasizing the rotation of the polarization vector along null congruences. A comparison of the obtained theoretical results on polarization angle with the observational data on Faraday rotation measurements provides the upper limit for the delta parameter as delta a parts per thousand currency sign2.1a <...10(-3).
