| Weekend Reflections is hosted by James each week beginning Friday at 11 AM Eastern Standard Time. It's another wonderful way of opening your eyes to new and different kinds of beauty. Click on the web address under the blog title and sign up to play with us! Same story as last week -- couple of days with some sun and more gray, plus no way to get down to the harbor or the sanctuary when the sun was around! Thankfully, I still have some from sunnier times! Hope you enjoy! |

I love that seaplane shot Sylvia. & I'm glad you had at least a couple of days of blue skies!
; )
You have me at sun and blue skies. Water's just an added plus!
Very nice Sylvia! That water looks so clear and inviting!
Nice reflections. The trees reflected look like corals!
Great shots of a warmer time. I love the seaplane view Sylvia.
Oh...the sailboat! That's my favorite! Very pretty on that gorgeous water! Happy Valentine's Day, Sylvia!
I don't know which I like best -- the tall ship or the photo from the seaplane. Thanks for sharing these weekend reflections with us. Have a wonderful weekend.
The path along the sea is the kind of place I like! and the view from the plane is fantastic!
Have a nice week-end!
We're just all over the place, aren't we--such fun though. I LOVE the quote at the end of your post--excellent. Have a nice weekend. Mickie
I am distracted by the shot in the middle. Fantastic, Sylvia!
a seaplane ride must be so exciting
beautiful shots
Hope sends hugs
Hi Sylvia! I would never have guessed that was a flight over Seattle! Wonderful!
A floatplane trip was a wonderful birthday present! Looking forward to Sunday, too!
Wonderful pictures, Sylvia! I like the sailboat image: it looks like an old painting.
Very true Einstein's words!
Sylvia how blessed you are to have a son like yours. The photo from above is awesome. Great shot!

What a relaxing environment, Sylvia -your second pic is my fave! I love air shots!
And as you were taking picture "on" the sea, i was taking pictures "under"... Lovely set of reflection this weekend again, my dear...
The seaplane shot is excellent and the panorama with the ships and mountains is wonderful!
Lovely shots and quotes as always, Sylvia!
My favourite shot is the one you took from the plane! You had a very nice birthday gift! Lucky you! And thanks for sharing with us;o)

Fantastic present and fantastic shot!
Lovely Sylvia -- I would hang any one of those in a place of honor (and they're already framed!).
How alluring ...
Please have a good weekend.

Great series, the second must be taken from an airplane, this view is magnificent.
fun post Sylvia! That ship is impressive!
I love the Seattle overhead shot, Sylvia! Your reflections always give me an appreciation of the beauty of nature. I hope that you have a wonderful weekend, my friend!

oohh, a seaplane! great shots.
Nice photos. The second one is very cool, doubly so since you took it yourself. What a fabulous birthday present you got.
I love the sailing ship photo and the wonderful quote that goes with it.
The other two quotes were great also. How true about the stickers. We have to like ourselves before other people will find us likable. The quote by Einstein is great also.
We had a great thaw today. Things are looking up!
Have a great weekend.
Hi sylvia, wow.. these are awesome pictures... just lovely.
Weekend Reflections here

Oh how I would love to sail away on that ship!!!
How about writing a novel set on the sailing ship?? I desperately deed some escapism.

“That which is striking and beautiful is not always good; but that which is good is always beautiful.”
That is a really interesting quote! Good does always have as apparent beauty. Sometimes the first impression is not beautiful - maybe that is because the good is camouflaged.
Lucky you! What a sweet and thoughtful son you have, Sylvia. Have a wonderful, hopefully warm weekend.
I join the crowd cheering the sea view shot, Sylvia!
The second pic is breath taking and the quotes are so beautiful... Have a wonderful weekend:)
Bonjour Sylvia!
Beautiful set of pictures and the second one is my favorite!What a wonderful gift from your son!How it's nice! :)
Hugs

Have a great weekend!
Fabulous collection, Sylvia!
Beautiful pictures and my favourite is the first one. Love the quotes too.
Have a great Sunday.
Nice series Sylvia. I like the way you present your images.
Firstly, I love your new header! Each one gets better and better. You are very lucky to have such an artist for a friend. Secondly, your photos are, as always, beautiful. You always give much food for thought with your carefully selected quotes. How lucky you were to receive such a wonderful birthday gift! That photo from above is my favorite! ~karen
Thank you, Sylvia, for sharing the beautiful, refreshing scenes with your sweet memory. The reflections of the trees teach me they look different seen from high above.
