Reflection – a dream, a voyage, a land of possibilities…
Contemplating from within, looking into the darkest corners of your mind, and finding endless beauty.
This is my response to CBBH monthly challenge . Thank you Marianne for launching this inspiring and motivating challenge. I look forward to seeing your and your followers’ posts in 2013.
On the first day of the new year I would like to introduce two bloggers that have brought me inspiration and joy over the past year. Please say hello to my friends Cardinal and Le Drake Noir.
Another beautiful picture!
Thank you honey
Thank you so much Paula. Great photo of the mountains reflecting in the water. I’m looking forward to follow your posts also in 2013
My pleasure CG
And thanks for using the widget of course
It took time and effort, but I am happy with it
. It would be cool if the WP accepts it as their official one… Is there a possibility to vote?
Wow! Your photo had me puzzled for a second until I realised it is wholly a reflection – very clever, Paula. I love the way your entries are always so thoughtful.
I’ll HOP right over and say hello to your two friends, right away!
Fantastic start to the New Year and this month’s Photo Challenge – well done
Thank you
Super reflection image Paula!
I am glad you like it Phil
Gorgeous reflection shot, Paula!
Thank you dear Amy
I hope the new year started well for you 
Great shot! If you flipped it upside down itd probably look like a painting
Thank you … I think it already does
Wonderful photo, it’s greeee8…
Thanks so much, you’re so sweet…
Nah, I am just grrrr8
Indeed and greeee8 too…
Very nicely done Paula!
I have to agree with you on this one Jeffo
Ciao, speciale!
MERAVIGLIOSA,
Fabulous reflections, Paula. Loved the music………so soothing first thing in the morning before we start out on our 6 hour drive.
Have a safe drive Sylvia!
Thanks. xx
This is stunning for tones and composition. One tip: have you tried looking at the image upside-down? Reflections can give wonderful surprises, sometimes…
I’ve done it now
What a genius idea! Grazie Alessandro 
Took me while to figure it out as well, and then it seems so perfect! Wonderfully serene music, Could I now the name of the album?
Awesome reflection Paula! Love it
Happy New Year, Paula!
Happy 2013 to you Annie
Great photo…. and soothing too.
Glad to reconnect with you this year …

“…endless beauty”. Such a beautiful statement and one that fills me a hope that we all may be struck by such an experience. What an exquiste vision of mother nature in her glory! thank you for sharing
Hello Adriana
It makes me happy to read you 
and to see that you got my message 
I do hope this years brings you everything you wish for.
That is an amazing , beautiful reflection. Like life, if we look from within, we will discover something wonderful. Happy New Year.
I adore the glassy smudginess of this shot Paula, beautiful!
You have many beautiful friends, Paula, and sharing them is one of the aspects of Marianne’s challenge that I really like, so when the music finishes I’ll be visiting Lake Orta with you, and then returning here.
Yes, I do , I am blessed that way
and I have always shared links to my true friends no matter who asks me to do so… this is one of the aspects of Marianne’s challenge that I do not like .. as I feel pressured.
If I took part on a regular basis, I would too, I think. It’s another aspect to have to think about when you really just want to focus on the challenge.
I am not into stats, or stats-related goals or blogger awards .. I hope you have noticed that. There are a lot of nice bloggers and even people around here, but I see no point in making such rules. I like it when it comes from the heart not as an obligation or to return someone a favour. The world functions this way I know, but I want blogosphere to be free of mutual back-scratching…. I am sorry if my words sound harsh. I must always speak my mind… Another thing – I never evaluate whose blog is better, nicer, lovelier or whatever – I consider it a virtual home for people their own world (unless of course they are selling something) – and who am I to judge whose blog is better or nicer than somebody elses. I can only enclose links to blogs that I feel inspiring, that I can relate to, and if I see that people behind them are not some @ssholes
.
Thanks for introducing me to this music that has been shared with this post.
It is my pleasure
Thank you for commenting and to finding my blog follow-worthy 
I find a sense of calm in your blog. I am pretty sure that that feeling pervades in your being too. Moreover, it seems like a travel blog with photos. A little different from other blogs which I follow and are just about writing. So yes, will be visiting frequently.
