Weekend Reflections: Louis XIV et les voitures

For James' Weekend Reflections, here's the equestrian statue of Louis the 14th reflected in a car last week. All about the statue and the king this way. VDP and quite a few other blogs aren't being updated on the CDP portal. Anyone know what to do about it other than posting in the technical problems forum which I already did?
------------------------
Louis XIV, les voitures et cars de visiteurs, pour les Reflets du Weekend de James. Pour voir la statue seule, c'est par ici. VDP et pas mal d'autres blogs ne sont pas mis à jour sur le portail CDP. Que faut-il faire d'autre que signaler le problème ?

Hi Ciel - sorry about the photo not showing up...it did on some blogs and not on others. I don't get it. Something is screwy!

This is, as per usual, a wonderful reflection shot. You ought to give lessons.

Thanks for your kindness and expressions of concern. I told Denise folks all over the world were thinking of her and some were praying for her and she burst into tears. So, it means a lot!

Merci beaucoup!!!!!

Hey is that Cezar and Léia in the reflection, kinda looks like them!

Jack said...

Ciel, this is a wonderful and artful photograph. Hope your weekend is a good one.

What a scene you captured in that window! The sublime and the mundane in one. I've had that problem on CDP before (haven't checked, maybe I do again!), I've just let them know, as you did and it resolved with a couple of days. I know, that doesn't help.

You capture great reflections, Ciel!

Dave said...

The couple in the bottom left add that touch of movement.

We reflection photo seekers must thank car owners who keep their windows shiny.
Great shot.

Love the deep blue shade in the window! It must of been a really sunny day for the reflection to be so clear :-D

Happy Weekend!

Cezar and Léia said...

And you forget to say those girls are enjoying the sunny day , walking and chatting happily, so beautiful composition and captured with perfection, very well done!

I 'know' the guy on the statue and I like the quite natural reflection. I still have no idea about the freezing of the portal...

SRQ said...

Terrific reflections! The problem you mentioned must only be with the CDP portal, because your photos are updated on my dashboard daily.

Diane said...

Very clever shot! I like it. xxx

il faut poster en appuyant doucement sur entrée.

Excellent reflection---the old with the new.
I seldom check the portal so now I will and see what is going on. MB

Hee! You also have a dude on a horse today. :)

Very nice reflection. You always come up with something creative.

Sylvia K said...

Have to agree with Halcyon, you always come up with creative reflections an I always love them! This one is not exception!

Je trouve ce reflet de la statue équestre de Louis XIV de toute beauté, vraiment... Et si original, par rapport aux vues traditionnelles... Bravo !

Love the "horse in the car" reflection. (Your photo on the 4th is just fabulous also!)

Fabulous reflections like this one in windows of a car are mind boggling. You have to be at the right spot at the right time to be able to capture something like this. Great shot.
