sharleenstuartShare Six: September 2017: Reflections
The theme {Reflections} has been chosen by by Elizabeth of It’s Still Life Photography by Elizabeth Wilson. By the time this goes live I will be bed bound for over 3 weeks, almost half way through my confinement. Foot surgery is not fun and moving past the two months the recovery is really slow. Add the fact that surgery is being done on both feet and it is even more complicated.
So my {Reflections} – is in part on the things that I am missing out on. I love to get outside and walk, or rather meander and this is not something I will be able to do for at least 6 months. The other side of this is reflections I have taken either recently in preparation for this upcoming reality of not being able to get out and take photographs.
Recently I was at the Butterfly World and this is the complex across the lake. We had a down pour of rain and then the sun came out and the reflection was perfect.
We were up in Seattle and had just walked through Chinatown and were on our way back to the hotel when we spotted this shop Tango Zulu. It was no co-incidence that two South Africans were looking in the window and I was taking the picture. In fact both my sister-in-law and I both grew up int the “Zulu” nation of Natal.
Thursday evening is my typical night to go up to the Loxahatchee National Park to photography the sunset. I always love the reflections that I see in the water. I am certainly going to miss going up there.
A visit to Viscaya Museum and Gardens, the historic home of James Deering, nestled on the edge of Biscayne Bay. This is one of the most interesting homes that I have ever visited and I have been three times. If you ever get the chance to visit I encourage you to do so.
This past weekend we took a overnight trip to Key West. We stayed at the Simonton Guest house and we had our own private little pool which we made use of. The next morning when we were leaving I noticed the reflection in the water and could not resist taking it.
I am back at the Loxahatchee National Park and this is one of my favorite spots to visit prior to the sunset and sometimes after it as well. The reflections are gorgeous and at times the light is just amazing.

I love how you used both the gorgeous water in your environment and also the window reflections in this post. The colors in those sunsets bouncing off of the water are incredible!
