Really great! Second mask of the day. Seems to be a very festive Friday!

Alexa said...

You've captured all sorts of good reflections here!

Tash said...

Outstanding. I think the mask is behind the window but it seems to be fused to it from the outside. Love the shape of it and the sharpness of the reflection.

A lot going on here. The window as a whole is fascinating - and there could be a second image just concentrating on those lovely distorted reflections in the mask.

Very cool. You've got a great photographic eye but I think I've told you that before. I would have seen the larger reflection here but likely would have missed the reflection in the mask! Nice job!

Good morning how are you?
My name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.
I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because trough them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately it’s impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.
For all this I would ask you one small favour:
Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Serbia? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Serbia in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:
Emilio Fernandez Esteban
Calle Valencia, 39 Bajo C
28903 Getafe (Madrid)
Spain
If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com, where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.
Finally I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.

Yours Sincerely

Emilio Fernandez

I really like this Bibi! The reflections on the mask are cool plus the reflections in the background. Great shot!

I love your shot of the man walking while reading the newspaper.

This looks like an acknowledgement of Carnival. But that isn't celebrated in Serbia; is it?

p.s. I imagine the boy in Madrid will receive more than one letter because of his comment.

PerthDailyPhoto said...

Oh very good Bibi, two reflections in one and so unusual with the mask. Excellent spotting!

Karl said...

Very cool, nice mask and great reflections here.

Abraham Lincoln said...

Lots of Mardi Gras masks being worn on this side of the pond this week!

SUNSET

  A beautiful urban sunset over New Belgrade. The 'smoke' from the stacks on the left is actually just steam from the heating plant....
