Footy v elegance.....!
Although the game of Aussie Rules football holds no allure :) for me it was excellent to see the support and excitement for the Fremantle Dockers in their hometown this week. Fremantle was awash with purple and white.. balloons and spirits flying high in anticipation of a win in the second preliminary final against the Sydney Swans today. I really feel I should care :) the Dockers are WA's only hope of winning the Grand final this year...Go Dockers!! Personally I like to 'reflect' on more pleasing scenarios, such as the ornate dome and corner turret of the tres elegant Esplanade Hotel below. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, take care.... linking to James's Weekend Reflections.

ReplyDeleteAloha, Mon Ami
Very nice reflections....good shot.
ReplyDeletewish you a lovely weekend.
Have a happy spring weekend !
ReplyDeleteI find it difficult to comprehend the sports madness, how can a bunch of people paid a lot of money represent anything?
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the sports bit:) No interest at all in that stupid stuff....BUT our spouses are occupied with it all allowing us to hang out with our friends and take pictures:) To each their own. You have a great weekend as well!
ReplyDeleteThe "Fred" scarf is so funny ! Nice catch for the week !
ReplyDeleteI believe that sport gives movement to the city.
ReplyDeleteI think, too, that the sport should be valued in proportion.
Wonderful, as always, pictures.
Hugs and kisses.
That is a wonderful reflection. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love the reflection!
ReplyDeletePS: We are moving to Berlin, Germany. That's my husband's hometown. :)
Didn't manage to get a picture of the players then hmmm?
ReplyDeleteGreat window reflection shot ~ very colorful too ~ carol ^_^
ReplyDeleteSports isn't my thing, either.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of catching up to do--get sick for a few days and miss everything....
Haha, I love that feeling of wishing I could care:)) Love the reflections and signs in the top shot, and that sweet view of sky and dome below!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful reflections.
ReplyDeleteI must admit that I don't know anything about Australian football but I do like the reflections. :-)
ReplyDeleteBeauty the Perth....all the snaps are nice. Keep going.
ReplyDeleteThere was coverage of the Austrailian footy phenomenon on my usual morning TV show (in France), Télématin. Very interesting. And, nice shot of the hotel !

ReplyDeleteThere are so many beautiful delicate details in the reflections. The last image is poetry to our eyes, really wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend

The reflections are very nice, but football buuhhh, not my cup of tea.
ReplyDeleteI must admit, I prefer to reflect on architectural style rather than footy. The football hype tends to get overwhelming. But each to his own. However, the reflections of footy and architecture make a great photo op.
ReplyDeleteI love all the bright BLUE in your images.
ReplyDeleteThe reflection in the window and the "framing" is also very pretty!
HaPpY WeEkEnD !
I'm with you on this one. I feel like I should care about all our sports teams but I'd much rather be out taking pictures. However, as you know I do attend the occasional basketball game when the season arrives. That's because my friend is a huge fan with season tickets and she asks me to go with her. Her husband has lost all interest and hates to drive downtown.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of American football, but I know enough key phrases to attempt a conversation with oldest son. But I am a fan of your dome reflected. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
ReplyDeletea wonderful pictures with atmosphere and colour...
ReplyDeleteGreat composition at the bottom.
ReplyDeleteI shall not comment on professional sports of any kind. But what a fantastic reflection!
ReplyDeleteGreat reflections! There is a channel here that regularly shows Australian rules football.
