I chose these painted reflections postcards because I knew where I had those… I’m sure I must have several photo reflection ones as well, but they’re not easily “findable” just now! (This Postcards for the Weekend meme is certainly giving me a lot to think about when it comes to the best way of organizing one’s postcard collection…)

    Sure enough, they all have reflections! I love each and every one, and for a change I have no favorites. Each one is so beautiful! The Denmark one is very moody and almost spooky.

    Beautiful artworks! Thanks for sharing Monica. And same for me, I'm also improving my postcards organization because of our weekend meme.

    Beautiful cards! I think the Monet is my favourite, but they are all lovely.

    A pleasure to see these works. Higashiyama's has impressed me.

    Ah the finding of elusive cards, sometimes I think they hide! I enjoyed all the ones you show, the watercolour rainbow lighting up the square is lovely and am fascinated by the Higashiyama.

    It never ceases to amaze me how many ways there are to interpret reflections in art.
