Optical Illusion (Weekend Reflections # 364)

Doylestown, Pennsylvania

I'll be traveling this week and next so Weekend Reflections will be prescheduled. 
I won't have computer access, only a smartphone. I don't think I'll be able to fix any link issues so hopefully all will go well.  :-)

I'll be back for the weekend of the 30th.   Have fun! 

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.

Happy Reflecting!

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!

The Reflection Watcher 2 (Weekend Reflections # 352)

Same place as last week except this time I was standing a few feet to the side of the man instead of a few feet behind him.

Happy Reflecting!

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.

Happy Reflecting!

Chinatown (Weekend Reflections # 347)

Philadelphia, PA

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.

Have a great weekend!

Neshaminy Creek (Weekend Reflections # 345)

Newtown, Pennsylvania

I was looking out of a diamond shaped window on The Schofield Ford Covered Bridge . I took this shot a while ago and planned to go back for a better one but I forgot. I'll post this one now and I'll post a new one within a few months. Or better yet in autumn when the trees are colorful. :-)
 
And Happy Reflecting !

Walking the Dog (Weekend Reflections # 341)

Newtown, Pennsylvania

The stone building in the reflection looks pretty old, but I'm not sure how old. One thing for sure is it isn't as old as the white building on the left side of the reflection. 

This is what I found about the white building:

Built in 1686  "Originally a residence, then tavern with other uses. Oldest frame house still standing in Pennsylvania. Famous as the site of the 1778 Newtown Skirmish during which Loyalists killed 5 and captured 16 to acquire cloth being manufactured for use by Washington's troops at Valley Forge. Now a private residence."

Happy Reflecting !

These Boots are Made for Walking (Weekend Reflections # 340)

Philadelphia, PA

Wow, Doc Martens! I haven't had a pair since the 1980's.   I had to get the writing in the shot because Dr. Martens boots bring back memories for me. :-)

Happy Reflecting !

A Rocky Reflection (Weekend Reflections # 335)

                                                                   The Barnes Foundation
 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania           

No, not that "Rocky" although I did walk past his statue shortly after I took this picture. :-) 
I had to laugh when a man who was also taking pictures said to me, "You should get a UV filter for your lens so you won't have to worry about all of these reflections." :-)

Happy Reflecting!

The Benjamin Franklin Bridge (Weekend Reflections # 334)

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 

No, it's not spring yet. I took this shot last April about a month before this brasserie opened for business.  There wasn't much to see inside but there was a nice reflection in the window.

Summer Rain (Weekend Reflections # 332)

Philadelphia, PA

When I took this shot last summer, I didn't notice the reflections, but now I do, so here it is. :-)

Philadelphia is great place for reflections.  My wife is taking me there for my birthday dinner on Saturday so I'll be on the lookout for them.

Happy Reflecting!

Skyscrapers (Weekend Reflections # 320)

The Rodin Museum (Weekend Reflections # 318)

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

 Reflections at the entrance of La Musée de Rodin.

The "Rodin Museum opened in November 1929. A unique ensemble of Beaux-Arts architecture and a formal French garden in which to experience the sculpture of Auguste Rodin, the Museum was designed by French architect Paul Cret (1876–1945) and French landscape designer Jacques Gréber (1882–1962)."

Tall Reflections (Weekend Reflections # 316)

Philadelphia, PA

I wanted to take a photo when I saw this reflection in the street. I didn't have much time because a bus was about to stop right on top of it. I snatched my phone out of my pocket, clicked and then stepped back just in time.  Thankfully, I didn't get splashed. :-)

The Starbucks Siren (Weekend Reflections # 313)

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania        A starbucks logo reflected in a window

The other night I looked through a window at a Starbucks in Philadelphia and noticed the logo reflected in another window at the other side of the store. The siren seems to be hovering above the walking man but in reality he was across the street.

Happy Reflecting!
