The sandstone clock was constructed between 1865 and
1869 in a memorial to Queen Victoria's late Prince Consort, Prince Albert. CLICK HERE for more information.
I waited until the lights changed again and then stood in the middle of the road to get this shot. I am sure people in cars waiting at the lights wondered what I was doing!!
I moved along a bit and got this shot in the same
window.
I thought you might like to see some of the beautiful architecture
in our buildings even though the reflections were not great!
Two
posh hotels.
Then I liked seeing this lovely car’s reflection in
this window.
Finally I stood for ages trying to work out what was inside the shop window and what the window was reflecting. I could not get the shot without the ‘selfie’.
I hope you enjoyed this post.

I have always liked Belfast as a city. It is small enough to appreciate whilst having some beautiful buildings.
ReplyDeleteHI Adrian it has improve greatly since the troubles ended and one of the things I like about it is the centre is not too big so you can walk and see a lot in a short space of time. Many thanks for your comment. Weather her is awful but they promise sun this afternoon and less wind. I am not holding my breath on that one. Some people's homes were flooded yesterday with so much rain Have a great weekend and hope you weather enables you to get out and about

DeleteHi Margaret, the 'new' glass clad buildings are no match for those older ones. The clock is a real beauty...[;o)
ReplyDeleteHI Trevor I quite agree however for this exercise I needed the modern glass building to create the reflection of the older buildings. Thanks for your comment and have a lovely weekend

ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend ,dear Margaret!
Those are very interesting shots. I often wonder what people think of me when I'm trying to get a shot,but I do think they are the ones that miss out,by not slowing down and enjoying the scenes.
ReplyDeleteThe reflections ARE great, they are wonderful!! Especially three and four. The clock is quite imposing, too. The hotel buildings are fabulous and the shots are beautiful, especially seven and eight.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing what we can see when we open our eyes (and heart) isn't it?
