Happy New Year! (Weekend Reflections # 379)

Lyon, France

This is a reflection of a dragon, people and some buildings in Lyon. The dragon was part of Lyon's light festival (Fête des Lumières). It's reflected in a window. The red streaks are from a Fête des Lumières poster behind the glass.

Thank you for being a part of Weekend Reflections! I hope that you all ring in the New Year with health and happiness!
Happy Reflecting!

Art Lecture (Weekend Reflections # 378)

Rome, Italy

While walking around The Palazzo Massimo art museum, I noticed an empty conference room that had some interesting reflections in the window. To me it looked like art was giving a lecture. :-) 

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

Sphérades (Weekend Reflections # 377)

Paris, France

I'm back from my trip. I had a wonderful time, but I'm happy to be home. Thank you for your comments on my posts while I was away. I enjoyed reading them when I had free time and internet connection.

I was in Paris for a few days and took this shot of a fountain in Palais-Royal. I wish the balls were cleaner, but they sure do make for some fun reflection photos.

 Happy Reflecting !

I peeked into a hair salon window during my 2014 Venice trip and saw the stylist's reflection in a mirror.

Vino for Two (Weekend Reflections # 375)

Florence, Italy              Pre-scheduled post (on vactaion)


I saw a subtle reflection so I took a chance. The window was frosted and had red horizontal stripes, so I wasn't sure whether or not the reflection of the little wine bar across the street could be seen in a photo. 

Happy Reflecting!

Prallsville Mill (Weekend Reflections # 372)

This is a reflection of an old mill that dates back to 1720. It's on the New Jersey side of the Delaware River.

Starting next week Weekend Reflections will be on auto-pilot.
I'll be away until December 16th. I'm bringing my phone but I'm not sure how much internet service I'll have access to.

Leaving the Fun Zone (Weekend Reflections # 369)

Newport Beach, California
It's hard to tell but everything in this photo is a reflection. 

I was in my car on a ferry from Balboa Peninsula to Balboa Island. When I looked at my side view mirror, this is what I saw. Of course, my camera was within reach; however, I didn't expect this photo to work because it was really dark and the ferry was moving. I'm glad that I took the shot.

I guess if you're fortunate enough to have a house with a view like this, the least you could do is put up with pests like me who take pictures of reflections in your window.

Big Orange Balloon (Weekend Reflections # 366)

Irvine, California                   A balloon reflected in a window


My wife and I had a great time visiting our family in California but it's good to be back. :-)

I probably should have taken a ride in the balloon, but I settled for a few pictures.

 I'm not sure if this reflection shows how big this balloon is, so here's a description: "The Great Park Balloon is the Orange County Great Park’s iconic attraction. With the ability to hold up to 25 to 30 passengers, and soar 400 feet above the surrounding landscape, it serves as a public observation deck for the Great Park’s development and offers an unmatched 360° view that spans 40 miles on a clear day."

Happy Reflecting !

"Philadelphia Muses" Mural (Weekend Reflections # 363)

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This reflection was in the window of a cafe. The cafe was closed and the lights were off, but the back wall was illuminated by a partial reflection of a giant mural across the street. It reminded me of being at the movies.
Click here if you would like to see the entire mural.

Trees Reflected (Weekend Reflections # 362)

Newtown, Pennsylvnia

Reflections of trees that shed their leaves on a breezy day. 
I took this shot awhile ago but I think I noticed the leaves under the water before I noticed the tree reflections.

It's September and that means my favorite season will soon be here! :-)

Have a great weekend!

Carré Noir, Coifeur Pour Hommes (Weekend Reflections # 361)

Paris, France

When I was in Paris a few years ago I noticed this metallic lamp in a barbershop window. They were closed so I didn't get a haircut but I did walk away with a reflection despite the low light and sun glare.  That's me standing behind the globe, or technically, the globe was in front of me.
I love reflections. :-)

Rockefeller Center (Weekend Reflections # 360)

New York City

Even in a reflection "The Top of the Rock" gives me a neck ache when I look up. :-)  The view from the top is said to be amazing. I can tell you that the view from the bottom is pretty impressive.

The circular light fixture is not a reflection but it seems to blend nicely with the reflected building and flagpole tops.

Swimming in Reflections (Weekend Reflections # 354)

Lambertville, New Jersey 

The flowery fish decorations were inside of the chocolate store. To me it looked like they were swimming in the reflected trees. Or maybe they wanted to swim over to the green building across the street which is also a reflection.

The Reflection Watcher (Weekend Reflections # 351)

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This guy was looking at a reflection of Philadelphia's City Hall tower and if he turns his head to the left he will see a reflection of another building. I just noticed that the two hanging light fixtures behind the glass seem to be lighting the two reflected buildings. 

After I took this shot I walked closer and took another. Next week I'll post a photo of the "watcher" or at least his silhouette reflected with the buildings.

Chinatown (Weekend Reflections # 347)

This is a reflection of the entry way into Chinatown. It was reflected in the window of a Vietnamese restaurant. The orange things in the bottom right corner are probably plastic chopsticks or straws inside of the restaurant but I'm not sure.

Golden Wien (Weekend Reflections # 346)

Vienna, Austria                                                      Franziskanerplatz          

I was walking around Vienna one snowy evening when I happened to notice this reflection on a gold nameplate. You only see a little part of the engraved  calligraphy at the bottom of the picture.
The gold plate says "Michael Wolfgang Fischer Juwelen".  I think Juwelen is German for jewelry or jeweler. Who needs jewelry when you can have reflections, right? 
 No, I'm not going to ask my wife that question. ;-)

Have a great weekend!
