Life imitating reflection..



I must admit I had a wee bit of trouble myself working out which shot was real and which was the reflection when I got back to these shots taken on St Georges Terrace :) Winter hit with gusto this weekend and walking down the terrace was invigorating to say the least. When originally opened in 1897 as the Palace Hotel, now home to Woods Bagot, it was described as 'one of the most beautiful and elegant hotels in Australasia.'  Thankfully the facade of this old beauty was saved yet again by people power. Back to the reflection :) the young couple standing at the lights with suitcase is the giveaway as to which is which.. any clearer 😉 Hope you had a good weekend, happy Monday, take care and stay safe..

  1. ...I love that building! I hope the entire city doesn't become a collection of high rises.

  3. I have to wonder if in the first photo is that a fire hydrant, with chain on?

  6. First of all, that building is gorgeous. I'm going to take a guess that the first one is the reflection. My deduction comes after examining the photos for a long time. I think I see a streak of reflected light in the top photo and the cars appear to be traveling on the wrong side of the road for Australia. How did I do?

  7. I agree with Sharon, but for a different reason than she gave. Thought about the cars on the street, but this could be a one way street so that would account for the "wrong" side. The top photo is a reverse of the bottom one, and the writing on the banner is right on the bottom shot. I enjoyed your comment on my blog today. Yes, Perth is missing, but I think Perth is a hidden treasure.

  8. Is that a construction netting on the lower building or a permanent new 'hat'?

  9. Lovely frames both. I think the 1st pic is the reflection.

  10. The building is great, but who thought that thing around the top of it was appropriate! I think the first photo is the reflection.

  11. I see a light reflection in the first shot and the light pole has switched sides in the second one but that doesn't mean I'm not clueless on this one. Double negative and plenty muddled.

  15. I still prefer the old! From having the heating on last week they are now predicting 39C on Thursday and Friday - Not good for the health I am sure! Take care Diane
