Bologna, Italy Asinelli Tower
Like last week, this is a reflection in a window. This impressive tower is 97 meters (318 feet) tall and was built in the 12th century. 900 hundred years old, wow! My wife climbed the 498 steps to the top and was rewarded with a spectacular view.
Unfortunately, the blue sky and tower are not the only things reflected. There are also power lines and scaffolding. You can also see light fixtures and an air vent but they are behind the glass and not reflections.
Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Rome, Italy
This is the Spanish Steps, Trinità dei Monti church and other buildings including Keats House which was under renovation with a false facade and a Calvin Klein poster. All of this is reflected in a Dior window.
A few weeks ago s.c (sccollections) mentioned that he prefers to see a little piece of window frame or little piece of the facade, so I left both on the right side. :-)
Happy Reflecting!

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.

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!

Venice, Italy
This is the entrance to the Venetian Arsenal, a former shipyard and armory complex. As you can see it was a very foggy night and the water was agitated, but I managed to capture a few distorted reflections.
This place looks very impressive and it's full of history. Click HERE if you would like to read more about it.

Venice, Italy
This is the 16th century basilica San Giorgio Maggiore reflected on a vaporetto (water bus) window. I was more impressed with the outside of the church than the inside. However the view from the bell tower was well worth the short boat ride.

Florence, Italy
One evening as I was walking around Florence I noticed an interesting antique shop with a fancy old mirror. Unfortunately the shop was closed so I took a picture through the window. As you can see I only focused on the reflection. :-)

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.

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!

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.

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!

Stockton, New Jersey
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.

This is what happens when a ghost decoration inside of a shop and a reflection of the building across the street collide.
