Lambertville Reflections (Weekend Reflections # 5)


I really like these colorful old houses in Lambertville New Jersey just across the Delaware River from New Hope Pennsylvania. Both towns have lots of charm.

"Weekend Reflections" rules are simple:

2)After I post my Weekend Reflections photo, add your name, country and link to MckLinky

3)Be sure that your link goes directly to your Weekend Reflections post.

Very colorful street! Probably a good business spot after the recession is over that rent sign will be gone soon. I like the one with the flowers an extra bit :)

Great job James. The colors of the houses are stunning. We need to take a drive in that direction again before the foliage is all gone. If only it would stop raining on Saturdays!

Those matching colors bring life to a town. It makes me think of a paint color palette.

Sistertex said...

Really like the photos, especially the first one, such vibrant colors in the reflectinos. Very cool.

Hi James Thank you for visiting my blog. I didn't understand the word reflection right I think. Must be my bad English. Sorry about that.

Beautiful reflection shot.....so colorful....

Unknown said...

I really like the colours. It looks like it's all one building but the different colours make it so much more interesting than if it had been painted totally grey. It sure makes a lovely reflection!

Maude Lynn said...

Amazing how clear they are!

Michael said...

Great shots. I wish my window cleaner could polish like that.

VP said...

Excellent reflection, great colors. Love the houses in both, the flowers in the first one!

That's a real life rainbow street.
Hope folk like my first reflection. Apologies to any blogging lobsters of a nervous disposition.

Great shots James. The colors are so saturated. The scene seems Mediterranean. I had no idea they used primary colors like this in NJ.

Ebie said...

Great clarity of photos and simply beautiful! Love the variety of colors!

Sunny said...

I love your reflections, the colors are just wonderful.
I really have to pay more attention to taking reflection pictures!

What great imagination James. I love the way they bring to life the old tenement row houses from long ago.

Becky said...

Excellant catch James, AND there are some mighty clean windows here. LOL

These houses let me feel the attractiveness that seems to come out to a fairy tale.
Thank you for giving a gentle color healing my heart.

Lew said...

Great shots James! Such vibrant color in the sky and buildings.

Lovely colorful reflections, and that clear blue sky ... aaaah!!!! Lovely!

Anya said...

AMAZING reflections James (@^.^@)
So colorful :)
My compliments .....

Suburban Girl said...

Lambertville looks very German with the row of colorful houses. All they need is some window boxes with red Geranuims and your would think you were in Germany.

Betty W said...

I love the colors!
I´ll have mine up tomorrow.

Inday said...
