Newport Beach, California
A couple of weeks ago my wife and I were finishing a walk along the harbor on Balboa Island when we saw bright lights and heard carnival sounds approaching. That gave me enough time to get a shot of the elaborately decorated yacht as it passed by. It was a sight to see: Ferris wheel spinning, carousel turning, roller coaster rolling with all the sound effects. We saw it again during the annual Christmas Boat Parade.
Note: The dark areas obscuring the reflected lights at the bottom of the photo are rowboats tied to the dock and the shoreline.
A happy and healthy 2019 to all!

New York City
My wife and I spent Christmas 2015 in New York City. I was dreaming of a white Christmas, but I got a wet Christmas instead. The pouring rain distorted the reflections, but I didn't mind. It was a fun trip.
This year will probably be a mild Christmas, sunny and about 65F/20C.
Happy Reflecting!

To me, it looks more like a bus than a limousine. In any case, reflections ride for free. At least until they figure out how to tax them. ;-p
Have a great weekend!

Doylestown, Pennsylvania
There was a little plastic box filled with reading glasses for sale in front of a used bookstore. They added a mirror for those who wanted to try on the glasses or perhaps it was for those who enjoy a good reflection.
Have a great weekend!

I was crossing the harbor on a ferry when this little boat crossed in front of us. The boat was going pretty fast so I was lucky to be able snap a picture in time to capture the colors reflected on the water.
Happy Thanksgiving weekend!

I'm already starting to miss the cold weather and snow of Pennsylvania. Now that I'm back in California, I'll have to find other ways of cooling off. ;-p
Happy Veteran's Day!

Paris, France
The man and his computer desk are actually reflections on the mirrored ceiling of a perfume shop. The wooden display cases are also reflections.
You may or may not remember this photo from last year. This time I flipped it upside down for a different perspective. In reality, I aimed my camera upward, but now it looks as if I were looking down. ;-) You can see the original HERE.
Happy reflecting!

I was testing out my smartphone's black and white settings last October when this skeleton tried to upstage the buildings reflected in a shop window. ;-)

This is the top half of the 14-story "One City Plaza" building reflected in a puddle.
I imagine that it seemed tall when it was constructed in 1898. In comparison, the recently built Comcast Technology Center just a few blocks away is 60 stories.
Have a great weekend!

New York City
Do you see the reflection? It's not the white light in the center. The reflection is to the right and slightly up from there. Now do you see it? Although partially obscured by the window frame, it's a round plaque of a seated man playing an instrument while a woman dances. On this side of the street it's a reflection, but across the street it's one of three Art Deco roundels on the façade of Radio City Music Hall. The roundels signify dance, drama and song.

It's not the cleanest window or the clearest reflection, but if you look closely you might think the guy was waving at me. That would be strange considering I was facing the opposite direction with my camera pointed at a shop window. Who knows? Maybe he's very clever and figured out I was taking a picture of his reflection. :-)

I almost missed this thin mirror reflection as I walked passed the dress shop. I walked back and had to aim at just the right angle to capture this mannequin reflection.

While walking past a shop I noticed this little clown with a tiny mirror and easel painting his self portrait. I guess it's cute or maybe just creepy. :-)

The closed horizontal blinds in the window couldn't block the ferry sign reflection or the reflection of the Balboa Pavilion across the water.

The right side of the photo is a reflection and the left side is not. I can't tell if the man in the reflection is shopping for produce or looking at the menu board in front of the restaurant.
I hope you have a good weekend!

Actually, the cat isn't a reflection. It was a banner inside the shop. The man, his pick-up truck, and the building across the street are the reflections. :-)

Orange, California
When I was a boy this was a thriving mall with lots of shops and shoppers. Today it seems sad and desolate. Probably a victim of Amazon. However, the mall in last week's Weekend Reflections has been going strong for over 50 years.

Somewhere in Illinois (Reflections of trucks in a rest-stop window)
It was a long drive from Pennsylvania to California. I finally arrived last weekend and our belongings came on Tuesday. There's been a lot of unpacking and we are getting settled. I have to admit that it feels good being close to the ocean again. :-)
