Last week was the Sun and Moon so this week I'll take you to the stars.This photo is hard to explain, but I'll try. This is the rectangular center section of a restaurant in Munich. The glass is see through but very reflective and you are seeing the tiny lights (plus their reflections) that are hanging above the open air shopping mall below the restaurant. The bigger lights are the restaurant's lights and their reflections. To the left is a food counter and some tables, the tables and lights surround this glass center section. look down and you'll see the shopping mall, straight ahead is another building. The sky could be seen above but only as a reflection in this picture.

How clever! The tiny specks look like the galaxy or the Milky Way! Bravo!
Your picture makes me think about the ceiling of the dining hall in the school-castel , in the Harry Potter's movies!!Same magyc, same beauty!! Great !!
I was thinking the tiny specks looked liked a galaxy too. Whoever designed this really knew how to work with glass and artistic reflections! And, then you came along and caught the perfect image with your lens! I say "Bravo" too!
WoW! A starburst....really very interesting to look at...compelling.

Warp factor 6 Mr. James. Take us home. Neat shot. The universe is crowded with stars.
Such intricate reflections James! It's beautiful.
John was very clever in his remarks.Your image definitely looks like a great sci-fy image.
A really great capture James!
It's like New Year's Eve all over again! Love the capture...
What a beautiful capture , so very special and with your exlanation it is all very clear,
Wonderful refelctions, James! The tiny lights look fantastic. You captured a lot of reflections in your photo, great eye!
Mind boggling photo and very good explanation!
The explanation was needed, I can't figure out this without it, but now I can say: great, bravo!
James, This one is definitely a beauty. What a wonderful image, great eye. I just keep on looking and looking at it.
James, this is an amazing shot! I can understand why it's hard to explain it... :)
That is really cool!
This is such a cool shot! My first thought was the dining hall at Hogwarts too! It's every bit as magical. Wonderful capture James. Kathy
You must have spent a beautiful time here! Beautiful view and beautiful capture!
a mesmerizing view, to be sure!
This is so cool!
Even without the explanation, it would have been very pretty, but it's even more awesome with it.
Have a wonderful weekend, James!
Yours is a much more beautiful representation of a photo I attempted this a.m. through my windshield (dirty...) while trying to shoot a traffic jam in front of me. Mine didn't turn out so well...instead of the traffic jam I got my dirty streaks.
Happy Birthday...!
That is an amazing collection of reflections!
Fabulous reflections!
Definitely needed the explanation! Great reflection. :)
This is one of the most fascinating reflection images ever! The colored lights are mesmerizing and I like the sky colors too.
the reflections are very tricky, creates many lights, so enjoyable to look at
I seem to be breathed in to a light shower such as the illusion.
It DOES look like outerspace. I love it!
Happy week-end James.

Really beautiful! I love the lights, there are so many of all sizes!
James, that's spectacular. I like the complexity, and the patterns.
Congratulations on the new lens. I look forward to seeing your work.
The 50mm lenses are so much fun.
Your reflection shots always give me pause......sometimes I REALLY have to look at them to SEE them! Those tiny lights look like raindrops on the window. Cool shot!
very interesting and beautiful!
I have one for you this time!

It feels like I'm standing in a rain of light!
I think this is the best picture you've posted since I started following.
Looks like rain drops to me. I hope the beautfiul place makes the food taste beautiful too.
Happy Birthday James! Mine is Sunday.
Don't you love being an Aquarian?
Your photo is really really beautiful.
& the post before it,... wow! that guy (I'm assuming it was a guy) is a real dare devil eh?
I'll always wonder if he made it back too. Seems impossible, yet there are some people that are able to do these things so easily. It must be a gift of sorts.
Excellent capture .... really lovely reflection image - another good one to inspire the mind and the eyes to see things other than the obvious!!
Thanks so much

Reflections of reflections! Very nice capture! And I bet the beer was superb.
It gave a gorgeous effect !
Dazzling, James! A feast for reflections. Well done!
A stunningly beautiful capture of realities melting together! Fascinating!
Wow, I would love to see this. A really nice photo.
Beam me up Scottie! It looks like a painting, very clever!
This image is mind-altering, James. I love its complexity. How difficult was it to avoid having your own reflection in the photograph?
Is this a galaxy far far away? a Meteor shower? or even diamonds in the sky? Great reflection photo.
I came back to wish you a Happy Birthday!!!
James, that is an one amazing photograph. You must have been thrilled when you spotted it with that photographic eye you have. Your explanation is great.
Thanks for hosting Weekend Reflections.
and...
Happy Birthday, James... have a good one and many more!
Captivating.
I love that you described it all
it is a magical image, made me smile
Marvelous photo and illuminating explanation ... I've had mixed results with such indoor shots, but I keep trying ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
A nice one with lots of possibilities for interpretation.
Lovely photo. Really good work! Congrats!
This is a really neat reflection. Very different!
hello, James!
Such beautiful reflections. Well captured. Love it.
Very fine! What a visual treat!
This is such a joyful photo!
I don't believe the explanation. I think it's fairy dust and magic.
Awesome reflection, it is like a magical curtain of stars. Beautiful shot.
This looks magical!
Bow to thee; The Master of Reflections! This one's a really stunning shot! Lights and lights everywhere, it's Diwali time :-)
