Food cart noir (Weekend Street/Reflections # 138)

 

New York City

Two guys getting a late-night snack in NYC.  The guy on the right reminded me of Robert Mitchum, circa 1940s. If only he were a little taller and wearing a suit and a fedora. 😊

                                            Have a great weekend!

NYC Jazz (Weekend Street/Reflections # 78)

New York City

Cool jazz on a cold night. 

I don't remember what he was playing but it was probably something like this.

Rockefeller Center (Weekend Reflections # 360)

New York City

Even in a reflection "The Top of the Rock" gives me a neck ache when I look up. :-)  The view from the top is said to be amazing. I can tell you that the view from the bottom is pretty impressive.

The circular light fixture is not a reflection but it seems to blend nicely with the reflected building and flagpole tops.

 Happy Reflecting!

In, Under and Above The Big Apple (Weekend Reflections # 357)

New York City

I was in The Big Apple when I noticed these people sitting under the big Apple logo and above it at the same time. Thanks to the magic of reflections.

Warped Buildings (Weekend Reflections # 353)

New York City

Skyscrapers reflected in a bus window. It looks like those windshield wipers are ready to clean more than just the bus' windshield. :-)

New York/New York (Weekend Reflections # 338)

Upside Down World (Weekend Reflections # 330)

New York City

This refection at the bottom of the steps that lead to New York's Metropolitan Museum confirmed my suspicion that the world really is upside down and has been for the past several years.  ;-) 

The top one is flipped upside down and the bottom one is the original photo. The reflection is in a water fountain.

Wet Peanuts (Weekend Reflections # 329)

New York City

Last week I shared a Snoopy reflection. This week it's Charlie Brown and Sally. This is reflected on a round black table next to the Snoopy reflection table. :-)  

Only part of the table is in the photograph because that's where the reflections were. I hope this adds a little clarity for those whose eyes were fooled by last week's reflection.  

Look beyond Charlie and Sally's mouths and you will see where the table ends and the street and sidewalk begin. I couldn't fit them in the picture, but people were standing on the sidewalk looking into Macy's Christmas display windows.  

Have a great long weekend!

A Snoopy on 34th Street (Weekend Reflections # 328)

New York City

It was a rainy evening in New York and I was soaked but I couldn't pass up the reflections. This is Snoopy reflected on a wet table in front of Macy's on 34th Street. Actually the reflection was on Broadway between 34th and 35th streets.  :-)

Happy reflecting!

Happy New Year ! (Weekend Reflections # 327)

New York City                                     (Times Square)

This red M&M reflection was tying to get away by hitching a ride on the back of a car window.  It looks like he started his New Year's celebration early (notice the Budweiser reflections above his head. :-)
  
I wish you happiness in 2016 !

Big Apple (Weekend Reflections # 322)

New York City.                      5th Ave.   Apple Store

Coincidentally, exactly two years ago I posted another reflection of this golden building in a post titled "A Modern Coincidence". I like this one better because it has the big Apple reflection next to the building reflection. The see-through Apple cube is a great place to capture interesting reflections.

A belated Happy Thanksgiving and I hope you have a good weekend.

Solidarité avec Paris ! (Weekend Reflections # 321)

New York City            Bleu, blanc et rouge becomes red, white and blue when it's reflected.

  I took a walk after celebrating my wife's birthday in NYC and found this reflection of a building.  It was a touching tribute to a city that I love and have visited many times.


My heartfelt condolences to Paris after yet another horrific Islamic terrorist attack.


Je vous souhaite un week-end plein de paix !

A Modern Coincidence? (Weekend Reflections # 218)

Manhattan, New York                                          (5TH AVE)


I was trying to get a shot of the gold building reflected on this polished stone when someone set down their Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) bag. At first I was a little annoyed but then I remembered that I'm not the only one in NYC and I had to adapt quickly to changing photo opportunities. So I decided that the MoMA bag would be part of the photo. At the time, I didn't know the name of the reflected building but after a little research I discovered that it is called The Crown Building formerly the Heckscher Building and coincidentally in  1929 it  became the first home of The Museum of Modern Art. :-) The Museum moved to its current location in 1939.

I hope you (Americans) had an enjoyable Thanksgiving and I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Rainbow in the Dark (Weekend Reflections # 217)

Manhattan, New York

It's nice to go to NYC for the day but even nicer to spend the night. We had a great time in NYC last weekend. 

Have a great weekend!

Merry Christmas (Weekend Reflections # 66)

Even with all the pictures that I took in New York last weekend it was hard to find one that had reflections and a Christmas theme. This is a giant wreath on the Waldorf Astoria hotel and the Christmas decorations have buildings people and yellow taxis reflected in them. I didn't count them but this might be a record for the most reflections that I've posted at once.
I'll be posting the rest of the NYC photos as well as my photos of Europe at on my other blog. One of my New Years goals is to keep this blog more true to it's name. :)
