P.S. Have a fabulous weekend!
Very lovely reflection of the sun on te water, Sylvia. I hope this week brings you many days of sunshine.
I like the shadows games on the wlls. and the last one leaves me breathless§ Have a nice week-end, dear Sylvia!
Such wonderful sun reflections - relaxing views :)
Have a great Friday Sylvia!
I sure hope the shadowy photographer is inside, not a lurker outside!
These quotations are very profound reflections, Sylvia! The one by Nietzsche is very deep.
Beautiful shots Sylvia!
I can't say I'm a fan of Nietzsche, but the quote from him is a good one!
I kept saying "oh I like this best" until the next one came into view....these are beautiful. The last shot is a stunner, but I like the subtleness of the middle two shots as well-they create a mix of emotions-bittersweet, I guess.
Happy weekend Sylvia.
I just love that second shot!
Your first picture is wonderful. I love the reflection of the light on the water and those mountains in the backyard. I hope you do have a beautiful, sunny weekend and can get more great pictures to share with us.
I vote for the last one as well and I love your quotes!
Great shadows/reflections in the middle shots, so well composed, Sylvia. The sunset is gorgeous and look at all those boats!
Nice chase and nice catches ! The first one is so majestic, with those shades of blue... And the last one is simply superb !
That first photo is one to dream about, Sylvia.

oh my, that last one is dreamy gorgeous. but...I think my fave is the sepia-toned second. it's got great atmosphere. have a great weekend Sylvia.
Delightful - especially the last shot.
Have a lovely week-end Sylvia
Another interesting selection of reflections and shadows. I like the world through your lens.
Stunning lighting in the first and last photos! And the shadowy spaces are beautifully mysterious!
A great set of shots and quotes, Sylvia...I love the second-to-last one...so striking! And your friend has outdone herself on the banner...this one is stunning1!!
Lovely series Sylvia. The reflected shadow shots are very creative. I love 'em.
More rain - hard to believe! These are beautiful photos, Sylvia - you live in one of the country's most amazing places. But I have to admit, it was nice to see some Colorado sunshine after spending a week there! But I'm sure I'll be back again.
Beautiful shots!
lovely reflections & shadows, nice job Sylvia.
Have a great weekend!
: )
PS
Your friend from Mumbai gets more creative with every banner she creates.
Great shots...love the second one. Have a great weekend Sylvia!
Love Leo's quote. It found it's mark on me! Ouch.
ive just fallen for all these today.
Beautiful set of photos and quotes. I specifically like #2 and 4.
Delightful photos! The last one is fantastic!!
Beautiful photography! Living in the rainy Pacific Northwest USA I must say I love the first photo best. Sun, water, bench and I'd add a great book!

You have a wide variety!
I have just one shot. Hope you will visit. http://indisnapshots.blogspot.com/2011/05/wordless-155.html
All nice pictures, but the last one I like best !
delightful captures
You are the Queen of shadows, light, reflections, and appropriate quotes. And I am continually amazed by your ongoing stream of headers you get from your friend. They might deserve a post devoted to them.
I love your shadow on the lacy wall
There are so many wise variations of the Tolstoy quote, yet we still don't get it, do we? And Nietsche is referring to what the Japanese call ikigai or French call raison d'etre. Hope you get some sun soon! My friends just north of your border said that after the longest, coldest, wettest spring on record they finally got some sun today... you too? Like in your last gorgeous photo? Another fun header!
Its nice to catch up after not being able to do much computer stuff while we're on the road. Your posts are always so full of joy!
I love the new way your photos look with the rounded corners. And your new header just makes me smile every time.
