Weekend Reflections

Weekend Reflections is hosted by James each week beginning Friday at 11 AM. It's another wonderful way of opening your eyes to new and different kinds of beauty.  
We are enjoying a few days of gorgeous weather and I have been running around trying to get some good reflections to share with you today! I'm using larger photos since I now have that option. Although they don't quite fit into the usual space, I think the photos are more interesting when you can see more. So here are today's reflections!

 I'm sure you recognize my little friend that I caught enjoying the sunshine today!!

Reflections of the first hint of autumn reflected in the windows looking onto our deck.

I made another visit to my friends house and caught another great reflection of her living room and the neighboring houses!
And things got quite colorful in our breakfast nook!

I hope you all have a beautiful weekend filled with lovely reflections!!

The little turtle seems to be having a wonderful fall day sunning himself.
You found wonderful reflections Sylvia but I still so love your colored glass reflections. They always make me smile!

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

I agree with RuneE -- it's all lovely, but I love the turtle. Nothing can compete with a wild creature reflected in water. So wonderful.

Beautiful reflections as always Sylvia. Nice weather in Seattle now huh? We are in Maine now and it is pouring down rain. (We're glad we're parked on a hill.) We should be back in the NorthWEST, where of course it never rains ;>)

I LOVE the turtle!!

'Tsuki said...

I found the first one very funny, cause it in just like if the tortoise had been woken up and didn't enjoy it...

The last one is very colorful ; it brings some shine to my grey-and-rainy saturday in France... Thanks for that !

Janie said...

The turtle looks like he's enjoying himself. The window reflection shows a lovely view.

I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
