Café La Belle Férronnière (Weekend Reflections # 231)

Paris, France

Do you see the reflection? Look at the clock. It's not a reflection, but it's mounted on a large floor-to-ceiling mirror. Okay, now you see the reflection, right? The bar, the man stacking coffee cups and the table in front of the mirror are all reflections. In case you are wondering, I was on the floor above, just like the man you can see in the reflection above the bar on the right side of the clock. :-)

Have a great weekend!

  6. Terrific photo. Looked at it for some time. Figured out the clock, but still elements of reflection and non-reflection were not clear. Perfect.

  9. Love the geometric composition, how the image is broken up into separate squares by the architecture, as well as the cool pale colors of the outside vs. the warm, more intense tones of the reflection. The big round clock completes the geometry...

  11. Yet another shot that "takes me back" ... Paris cafes and mirrors go hand in hand. And the cups he's stacking - just stared at those for a few minutes! Didn't see many (any?)two story cafes I don't think - very cool perspective!! Bon Weekend!

  21. Knew that you were at higher place than the worker, because it's a downward view (a benefit from painting):) A great reflection, James!
