| 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! I was so excited about our bus trip this week to the Seattle Waterfront and was hoping for some really great reflection shots! So, what happened?? It rained the entire time we were there! But I got a couple of shots anyway. The first one shows you how gray it was! And then while I was waiting for the bus to come get us, I saw these reflections in the building across the street, not particularly stunning -- but???? |

oh that last one just makes me laugh and expands my heart at the same time!!! great one, sylvia!
All such beautiful reflections...those ducks are so cute...I remember this downtown so well...love it. Hope you are well my friend.
As seen from your first lovely shot, one remembers that beautiful photos are often made in inclement weather... Love the ducks with the "right idea" on life!
Enjoy your weekend, Sylvia!

I like your first photo very much, even if it wasn't the sunny reflections you hoped you would see. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Love that new header Sylvia...and the duck reflection is a very cute one. The others are just plain lovely. Happy weekend to you. Glad you're all moved in. Now the unpacking-I don't envy you that.
Wonderful reflections!!!
What a pity that it rained !
Love the last picture with the two ducks, so cute !
Even under the rain, you had a beautyful trip, and could catch great reflections! And the last one with the two ducks is cute and fabulous! Have a nice week-end, dear Sylvia!
Wonderful reflection shots, Sylvia! Excellent quotes too.
Happy weekend!
Amen to the chasing happiness...what a sweet photo of the two ducks; they look like they are solving the problems of the world and perhaps they are :)
Have a great weekend!
I love the first one, it is beautiful, and the last one made me laugh!

I particularly like these ducks, they look as though they're having a good gossip! Wonderful reflections too!

I really really like that first photo. It is very moody.

Happiness is certainly at there heels - Thanks Sylvia for the lovely photos and quotes,
Enjoy your week-end.
Beautiful reflection pictures! I especially liked the last one with the ducks...Lovely :)
Have a great weekend!
We must have been on the Seattle waterfront at the same time this week, Sylvia, as it rained when we were there too. You certainly get a lot of rain there! Anyway, nice photos - the classic grey Seattle skyline is always welcome.
I love those little ducks, Sylvia ~ and the quote "Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels."
... is perfect for the times ~
For all times, actually!
It reminds me of this verse,
""The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you." Luke 17:20,21.
I love these reminders that JOY is within us*
Have a lovely weekend, Sylvia

I like these buildings, regards and have a nice weekend =)
Don't sell yourself short, the composition of the first shot is really excellent.
When life gives you lemons, make lemon aid!
the last shot here is lovely, and the last quote I love. :)
A great series of shotsd! Love the moody atmosphere in the first photo!
Your first harbor shot is wonderful. Sylvia. I like the way it dissipates into the mist. Enjoy Memorial Day Weekend!
These are great Sylvia. I like the dark colors and composition of the first. The last image is just plain fun to look at.
Thanks for visiting.
Another gem of a post... Stunning pics all! Loved the quotes too especially the one about happiness...
Have a lovely weekend:)
beautiful captures!
Great reflection snaps and beautiful quotes..!
I love the skies in your previous post as well as the 'definition' of a diplomat! LoL.
nice reflections too, especially the love birds.
: )
just awesome

Beautiful reflective quotes and images. The last one is adorable!!

Great shots all three Sylvia. Love those wobbly duck reflections.
Hope you are thoroughly enjoying your new surroundings and have nestled in securely.
the ducks are adorable!
Lovely three, but my favorite is the duck with those beautiful reflections. Greetings.
the ducks are adorable
wonder what they're talking about :)
your newest header is wonderful!
Even if a grey day doesn't give the same reflection effects as sunlight they have their own "mood"
I know well how disappointing it is when you don't get the shot you imagined, but Sylvia, that's a lovely moody shot of the port!
Hi Sylvia! At last I can comment on your arghhhh photos that make me want to jump on the first plane to Sea-Tac! :-) For some odd reason I couldn't yesterday, even the pop-up window wouldn't open...
I'm sure we'll get to meet someday! ;-)
Bellissime foto Sylvia !
Buona giornata :)
Myriam
Love every shot! Great post, Sylvia, and cool new header too.
Looks to me like it wasn't a wasted trip at all; those are fine photos! And did you get to go out to lunch somewhere nice too? (I must be hungry to have even thought of that ;>)
