"Get Your Head Out of the Gutter" (Weekend Reflections # 412)

Image
Florence, Italy

I've heard the saying as "get your mind out of the gutter" and "get your head out of the gutter". Of course no one has said either to me.  :-)
I thought about saying it to the man in the reflection as a joke but I don't speak Italian and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't translate even if I did. :-) 

Have a great Weekend!

Dallas Reflection (Weekend Reflections # 411)

Image
Dallas, Texas

This is an old photo from when I lived in Dallas.  The bird on the left was enjoying the cool water while standing on a tree branch reflection.  :-)

My old back is starting to feel better, and it's not very hot so I need to get out and find some new reflections. 

Thanks for all of your kind comments last week. 

Happy Reflecting!

Pierrot and His Reflection (Weekend Reflections # 356 )

Image
Bucks County, Pennsylvania

I like looking at reflections but Pierrot prefers watching birds and squirrels. I think we were both happy when I took this picture.  :-)

Happy Reflecting!

Golden Wien (Weekend Reflections # 346)

Image
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!

Hello, Purr, Purr (Weekend Reflections # 339)

Image
                                                                             Pierrot reflected on my phone again.

I think he was trying to make a phone call or maybe he was just using the phone as a pillow.

 Have a blessed Good Friday and a Happy Easter!

Pierrot "le Fou" (Weekend Reflections # 314)

Image

The other day I noticed my cat Pierrot using my smartphone as a pillow.  He happened to be right next to the computer where I was surfing the web. Fortunately, a camera was within arm's reach so I took advantage of the moment. Pierrot woke up, but I got a nice reflection surprise.

Upside Down = Right Side Up (Weekend Reflections # 271)

Image
Budapest, Hungary

If you look at the bottom left corner of this photo you will see that it's upside down, which makes the reflection appear right side up. I took this shot during my last vacation. It's the Hungarian Parliament Building and Danube river reflected in a slightly tilted glass table in my hotel room. Also the pattern on blue carpet seems to match the reflected clouds. :-)

Enjoy your weekend!

Weekend Reflections is still on auto-pilot

Pierrot in a Poster (Weekend Reflections # 260)

Image
Bensalem, Pennsylvania

My cat Pierrot was at the vet's office looking out the window when I noticed that he, the window and the top of my wife's head were reflected in a cat poster.

Have wonderful weekend!

Left Bank Reflection (Weekend Reflections # 252)

Image
Frenchtown, New Jersey

It took me a while to remember where I took this shot. I still don't remember the name of the shop behind this window, but the shop across the street and in the reflection is called Left Bank.

Have a nice weekend!!!

Philadelphia Freedom (Weekend Reflections # 249)

Image
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The building at the end of the street and reflected in the glass on the right is Philadelphia City Hall. I can't think of a better place than Philadelphia for Weekend Reflections on The 4th of July.

PHILADELPHIA July 4, 1776 - In language certain to inspire patriots, and gall the King and England, a Declaration of Independence was adopted today by the Continental Congress. The Declaration is the defiant culmination of years of struggle between the new nation and its former protector. In ringing terms it lists the causes of the split, as well as describing the principles on which the new nation intends to govern itself. ("We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal . . .") - From Liberty! The American Revolution PBS.org

Happy 4th of July!

A Dark Street in London (Weekend Reflections # 247)

Image
London, England          

I was in a hurry to get back to the hotel when I took this shot, but I couldn't resist the reflection in this glass building.

Have a great weekend but don't forget the sunscreen. :-)

Gandalf in My Window (Weekend Reflections # 245)

Image
Holland, Pennsylvania

I was watching the Hobbit on DVD last Sunday night when I noticed Gandalf the wizard reflected in my back window. I'm glad I had a DVD player because the landscapers cut my cable lines, so I had no cable TV and no Internet from Thursday until Wednesday night. It feels good to be back on-line! :-)

Thanks for the great reflections and wonderful comments, have a great weekend!

Church of St. Anne (Weekend Reflections # 244)

Image
Budapest, Hungary           Church of St. Anne (Szent Anna-Templom)


In hindsight I wish that I would have been more patient and removed the cigarette butts and waited for the water to re-settle before I took this shot. However, I suppose this photo illustrates Budapest's majestic beauty and seediness, two characteristics of most cities.

Finally, after all of cleaning, painting, replacing, fixing, etc., this is our moving weekend! It will be nice to be able to settle down, relax and just breath. It was a lot of work for such a small place and the work will continue but now it's really ours. :-)

I wish you a great weekend!

A Ceiling Lamp Reflected in a Table (Weekend Reflections # 241)

Image
Prague Czech Republic                                  Café Louvre

As promised, here is one of the light fixtures from last week's Weekend Reflection photo. This time it's reflected in a table.  Unfortunately my Café Louvre menu isn't in focus but at least the reflected lamp is.

Thanks for contributing to Weekend Reflections!
Happy Mother's Day Weekend!!!

Café Louvre (Weekend Reflections # 240)

Image
Prague, Czech Republic                      Café Louvre

Some of you might remember seeing this photo on my other blog last year.


The reflected light fixtures seem to go on forever. Next week I'll post a picture of one of these light fixtures reflected in a table.

"You have just entered the foyer of Café Louvre. This Café, bearing the name of the world’s famous gallery, has been standing here for over a century, since 1902. Among its guests were Karel Capek, Franz Kafka as well as Albert Einstein during his professorship in Prague. The Café’s life was interrupted by force in 1948 by the communist coup when all café fixtures were thrown out of the windows into Narodni Avenue. The cultural melting pot was revived in the place after 1992 when the devastated premises underwent a complete reconstruction." 

Sorry for not commenting very much lately but I'm still very busy, probably until mid-June. The condo needs more work than I expected. 

Have a great weekend!

Trachtensalon Witzky (Weekend Reflections # 238)

Image
Vienna, Austria

In case you are wondering, "Trachtensalon Witzky" is the name of the clothing store where I found this window display. It's not my style, but if you want a dirndl or lederhosen, it's the place to go.

Happy Easter!

Langhorne Reflection (Weekend Reflections # 237)

Image
Langhorne, Pennsylvania

Lately I've been busy house-hunting and in a couple of weeks I will own a condo, which is a first for this lifelong renter. Thankfully, it's very close to Langhorne so the move shouldn't be too bad. However there is still plenty to do, like painting, cleaning and buying furniture.

I hope you have a good weekend! The weather is great here.
