Budapest, Hungary
This is a reflection of the Boscolo hotel previously known as the New York Palace. I think the old building is beautiful, even when reflected in a dirty window.
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!

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!

Chiesa di San Rocco (Weekend Reflections # 337)
Venice, Italy
This is a night time reflection of The Church of Saint Roch/Chiesa di San Rocco. It was reflected in a shop window. You can also see the reflections of people in front of the church.
Now, look closely above and to the left of the church door. Can you see the ghostly face? It's actually one of many harlequin masks that were inside of the shop. I know the mask isn't a reflection but I like what it adds to the picture. :-)
I just realized that this is the second time that I have posted a reflection of this church. The first time was four years ago. The photos are from two different Venice trips. If you want to see the first one from Weekend Reflections # 126 Click here.
Happy Reflecting! Don't forget to set your clocks forward this weekend. (For those of us whom it applies to.)

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 !

Venice (Weekend Reflections # 303)
Venice, Italy
If you look between the thick white lines on the window you will see what I was looking at. A man and a gondolier on a bridge. Like me, the man was probably waiting for his wife who was inside the shop and the gondolier was probably waiting for some tourists. The woman on the right is not a reflection, well not all of her anyway. :-)

At the Uffizi (Weekend Reflections # 300)
Florence, Italy
From this angle it looks like I caught her taking a reflection selfie. In reality she just happened to be passing by as I snapped a shot of the painting and its reflection.
Have a great weekend!

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. When it gives you rain, look for reflections.

The Art of Reflection (Weekend Reflections # 289)
Florence, Italy
After a long time of walking around The Pitti Palace museums, I started noticing reflections in strange places. This is a reflection of a women looking through a window with partially drawn drapes. I think she was looking at The Boboli Gardens.

The Leaning Reflection of Pisa (Weekend Reflections # 288)
Pisa, Italy
It felt a little surreal to see this tower in person because I'd seen so many pictures of it over the years. Sort of like seeing the Eiffel Tower or the Empire State Building for the first time.
Happy Easter!

An Evening at L'Opéra (Weekend Reflections # 285)
Paris, France
This is a reflection of the Opéra Garnier. And as you can see on the backward/reflected street signs, it's also a reflection of the intersection of Ave. de Opéra and Blvd. des Capucines. Try not to notice that part of my hand is reflected in the bottom left corner. :-)

Waiting for the Lights (Weekend Reflections # 283)
Venice, Italy
I was lamenting the lack of light as I took this shot. Then I noticed the unlit candles and lanterns in the window. Irony? It wasn't the best time of day to take a picture but at least I was able to capture this little slice of Venice.

Home Away From Home (Weekend Reflections # 278)
Paris, France Galerie de Montpensier
Maybe it's not one of my best reflections, but it sure brings back good memories for me. This shot was taken from inside of the apartment where my wife and I have stayed the most during our trips to Paris. Including or first and our most recent trip.
The reflections are on the door and on a glass coffee table that I pushed into the doorway. Why do I like staying here? Well, I love le jardin du Palais-Royal, and as you can see, I only need to open the door to be there.
Have a great weekend!
