Reflections de Parfums Frédéric Malle (Weekend Reflections # 426)


Paris, France

I took this shot through a window of a perfume shop in Paris, I'm glad I decided to stop and look up because the mirrored ceiling was full of reflections . The green sortie/exit sign is not a reflection but I think everything else is.

Have a great weekend!

Encoreunestp (Weekend Reflections # 424)

Paris, France

Last December I was walking on rue Vieille-du-Temple when I noticed a strange mirror on the wall. It was a dark evening but I decided to try to capture the reflection of the people sitting at La Perle across the street. I didn't know it at the time, but "encore-une-stp," which means one-more-please or another-one-please, is an insta/selfie/art installation with several mirrors in Paris. See an encoreunestp mirror, take a selfie and post it on Instagram. I love the idea, but I would change it to insta/reflection mirrors. :-)

Paris La Nuit (Weekend Reflections # 419)

It's fun to walk around Paris at night searching for reflections.  I'd like to thank the person who put the reflective material on the wall.  Merci !:-)

Boutique de Montres de Luxe MATY (Weekend Reflections # 415)

Paris, France

A reflection in the window of  MATY, a watch and jewelry store.This picture is 100% reflection plus there are lights reflected on the wet road so maybe it should be considered 110% reflection. :-) 

I know it's sometimes hard to tell reflections from non reflections without some perspective or clues. In this case the clues are the words on the street signs and on the side of the opera house.

I'm praying for those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.

Happy Reflecting!

Hôtel de Ville, Lyon (Weekend Reflections # 399)

Lyon, France

This is Lyon's city hall building reflected in a shop window in Place des Terreaux. The shop was closed as you might have guessed because of the gate pulled down behind the glass. Lyon is a fun and beautiful city. I'd love to go back someday.

Happy Reflecting!

La Tour Jean-Sans-Peur (Weekend Reflections # 386)

Paris, France                    (John the Fearless Tower)

 The tower, the sky and the other buildings were reflected in a shop window across the street (Rue Étienne Marcel). This one almost fooled me. I had to double check to make sure it was a reflection. :-)

By my standards all of the buildings in this reflection are old, but the tower in the middle is very old. It was built in the early 1400s.  I've walked passed it several times over the years but I haven't been inside.

Happy Reflecting!

Coups de Coeur (Weekend Reflections # 385)

Lyon, France

So what is it? 
Well, it's a reflection in a window of a closed shop that had one of those pull down chain link gates behind the glass. The reflection is an illuminated building with a big red beating heart in front of it. The bottom of the heart is obscured by silhouettes of the people watching the show. People were able to touch a console that allowed the heart to match their heart's rhythm with light flashes as love songs played over loud speakers.   
This was one of the installations at the Fête des Lumières. Click HERE to see a 30 second video of the installation.

Happy Reflecting and Happy Valentine's Day!

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!

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 !

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. :-)

Happy Reflecting!

Mirrored Ceiling (Weekend Reflections # 324)

Paris, France

The little yellow guy on the right directed my attention to reflections on the ceiling and on the wall. If you look closely you might notice a little green man on the left pointing to a reflection of a Christmas ornament and the reflected Christmas tree lights above it.

Happy Reflecting !

Paris la Nuit (Weekend Reflections # 323)

Paris, France                      Hotel du Louvre Reflected


Looking through a shop window I saw a statuette of a girl with her head bowed and arms to her side while blowing a horn.  Then, happily, I noticed that she was surrounded by reflections!

Happy Reflecting !
