Do you ever take a shot hoping that when you download it will translate into the image that you saw in the frame? That's how it was with this one for me. It's a reflection of the new Old Brewery (?) in the old Swan Brewery.. are you confused :) I think it's worth enlarging to see the details. The painting is by Scottish born John Campbell sometime between 1896/1924, his way with colour is exceptional don't you think.. and then there's a bit of an arch 'thing' going on.. I don't say it often about my own shots but I really like this one, hope you do too. Have a fab weekend, we're in for a hottie here in Perth so will look forward to seeing some snow scenes please :) Click here to see more reflections from around the world.....

Oh, I like that one very much, Grace! The colour in the painting itself and the detail works beautifully!
ReplyDeleteIt's snowing and cool here today, if that helps.
Love it! It's the overlapping reflections! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful image! I like the painting and the reflected arches.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting! And the arch adds some charm in a kind of way!
ReplyDeleteoh i love that too!!
ReplyDeleteThere sure is a lot going on in your reflection. Spent time with your image.
ReplyDeleteWhat a unusual display ! Nice choice for the week...
ReplyDeleteLove it Grace!!! I really like the painting by itself...but the reflection adds interest!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry I don't have a snow scene for you...we'll have to speak to the snow gods about that!!!
You and John did a good job here Grace.
ReplyDeleteThis is so terrific, Grace!
ReplyDeleteCool shot, Grace. I've been watching the Australian Open and can't believe the heat you are having!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Love that you love it too! Sorry that that unbearable heat is returning to Perth! I desperately want it to snow here but it just isn't happening! Darn! Stay cool (somehow)!
ReplyDeleteNicely done, Grace. No snow here, but the temps are manageable.
ReplyDeleteTook some working out at 8 in the morning. Very clever.
ReplyDeleteSorry no snow only rain here.
ReplyDeleteThis is great--I'd like to do something with a similar effect for a book cover!
ReplyDeleteThe colours are really exceptional...wonderful photo... Have a nice weekend too...
ReplyDeleteI have huge white snowflakes floating down past my window ... again. We have had so much snow and cold this year that it is not something I am treasuring at the moment. But that I could , I would send it to you:) Your picture is a delight and no wonder you love it. Everything just fell into place. It is beautiful. Savor the moment and then move on to your next great achievment. Great job, Grace ...
ReplyDeleteEven before I read the post, I thought, that is an amazing painting? Reflection? Both? So cool! I do love those colors. Icing on the cake with the 'arch thing':) Happy Weekend to you (if only we could send you some of our winter:)

ReplyDeleteI like Janey's idea. Swan's brewery must be a very historic place!
ReplyDeleteThis shot IS an amazing one, I agree.

ReplyDeleteA beautiful reflection Grace, I agree wit you. No snow for you from here, only rain,rain and rain and 9 C degrees.
ReplyDeleteYou are justified in being proud of this photo, Grace. It is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI am often asked if a photo I took was good, and I always say I won't know until I get it on the computer and can see it up close. Fortunately, there are usually more happy surprises than disappointments.
It is ART !:)

A lot to see here... A delightful shot indeed!
