This reflected image of Pisa was taken looking into the headlight of a parked Ambulance. On the other side of the coin as it were is an image of the leaning tower, taken looking directly at it. Reflected images are often far more interesting that the “real world”.
This post is in response to the Dialogue Weekly Photo Challenge from the folks at The Daily Post.
Apt choice, Daniel. I do enjoy good reflections.

Thanks for stopping by, really liked your take on the challenge http://sustainabilitea.wordpress.com/2014/08/29/weekly-photo-challenge-dialogue-imitation/ I’d imagine that this challenge will generate quite a wide variety of entries.
It’s a challenging one but should produce some great entries.
Excellent dialogue! π
Thanks for stopping by and the comment.
A tower reflecting on its own image! If it just could talk! Great entry Daniel.
Reflected immages are always interesting, mostly in the water but this … This is realy bravo!
Very nice “dialogue” between the two photos.

Excellent interpretation of the theme, and with a conundrum to boot: that the reflection is often more interesting than the reality.
Thanks for stopping by and the comment. Always nice to get shots of well known locations from alternative perspectives.
You’re right Daniel – love the reflected version!
love the reflection and the details :)..properly chosen for this week’s theme..cheers..
Thanks for the comment and stopping by.

[…] In a fry pan over medium-low heat, warm the 1 Tbs. olive oil. Add the bread crumbs and stir to coat them with the oil. Season lightly with salt and cook, stirring often, until the crumbs are an even, deep golden brown, about 10 minutes. Pour onto a plate and let cool.Bring a large pot three-fourths full of water to a rolling boil and add the 2 Tbs. salt. Add the broccoli rabe and cook, testing often, until the stems are just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs or a wire-mesh skimmer, lift out the broccoli rabe into a sieve and cool it quickly under cold running water. Drain and squeeze gently to remove excess moisture. Chop coarsely and set aside.Add the pasta to the boiling water, stir well and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, according to the package directions.Meanwhile, in the fry pan over medium-low heat, warm the 1/3 cup olive oil. Add the sausage, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring and breaking up the sausage meat with a wooden spoon, until the sausage is browned, about 7 minutes. Add the broccoli rabe and stir to combine with the sausage. Cook until the broccoli rabe is hot throughout, about 2 minutes. Season with salt.When the pasta is ready, scoop out and reserve about 2 ladlefuls of the cooking water, then drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Add the sausage mixture and the cheese and stir and toss well over low heat to combine, adjusting the consistency with some of the cooking water, if needed.Divide the pasta among warmed plates or shallow bowls, top each portion with a sprinkle of the toasted bread crumbs and serve immediately. Pass the remaining bread crumbs at the table. Serves 4 to 6. http://analindenblog.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/dialogue-weekly-photo-challenge/ http://portfoliodisophie.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/grapes-and-san-gimignano/ https://dcdoolan.wordpress.com/2014/08/29/wpc-dialogue-pisa-real-reflected/ […]
