For this week's WateryWednesday, and Weekend Reflections, I'm posting shots of a place I love. This is Finn Slough, a small fishing settlement in Richmond, British Columbia.
.
The tide was in the day I took these photos, and the clear still water provided wonderful reflections.

This photo may be my favourite. I had the thought that it would look much the same if I turned it upside down, so I zoomed in for a closeup and inverted it. It's an interesting effect, don't you think?

Yes, the last photo is very intriguing!
So crisp and clear it's almost like looking into a mirror. Fantastic shots.
Oh, so wonderful, Lynette. I love that area. I'd rather be there right now than here with -23 temperatures! Good thing we're going to Hawaii next week. I think I can put up with the cold until then. LOL

Wonderful, wonderful images. I love the reflections and was amazed at the different hues in the wood in the fourth from the bottom. I wonder how that was created?
Lovely photo!
Great photos.
Love your captures of woodsy reflections of places and buildings that might go by unnoticed by other eyes. The upside down image is magical!
Nice shots ... charming place! And thanks for visiting!
Hi Lynette, What great photos, so clear!! Pure charm!!

Fantastic reflection shots. It does look like a unique community.
How interesting! I can see why you like to photograph it often. The water is so still, the tides must move in and out pretty slow.
I love all the reflections, it looks like a wonderful place to explore with a camera
Hello Lynnette thanks for the visit. I do appreciate it very much. You have a very fantastic shot. And the place looks very interesting. Are their people living here? Or they just come here to fish. Happy Wednesday!!
Watery Wednesday
a very interesting place it reminds me of our place before when I was still a kid
I love it when the water is so still that you can forget which way is up! My favourite is the shot with the dog lying on the porch, watching you!
Beautiful shots, I love the reflections.
I've also lived my entire life in this area, and never been there. I must add it to my list before we move.

Stunning reflections. The place looks so serene.
Wonderful pics; so atmospheric. The great thing for me about blogging (well one of many) is that you get to visit places you know you will never see for real. Thankyou so much for sharing.
So beautiful! The reflections are crystal-clear. I would love to live in Finn Slough. My kinda place!
What wonderful perfect reflections! How interesting and peculiar compared with my own area of living...Wonderful pictures as always!
wow. wow. Why there are no people around? such deserted look because of that.
They are all lovely pictures! The water looks like a big mirror and that last shot almost looks like a painting. Very pretty!
WOW.. your photo's are spectacular!! They look so serene and inviting. I'm glad I stopped by.
Ahah, another person playing around with upside down:-) Nice one.

Of course I made it to your page... Your shots are fantastic, no kidding ! And you were right : I specially enjoy the last one : it is properly "renversant", as we say in French !
note : "renversant" means stunning, but in the sens of up side down, if you see what I mean ;)
Nice photo set. It does look like a wonderful place.
Have a great weekend.
This must be heaven for a reflective photographer :-)
Fantastic captures! I do love the watery reflections! And such a wonderful variety! Hope you have a great weekend!

Great reflections! and what an interesting and strange place!
stunning shots!!! The place looks lovely - thank you for sharing it with us.
cheers from Uruguay :)
Gorgeous series of photos, I love those perfect reflection. My favorite is the same as yours.
That is one wild looking town. It certainly made for some phenomenal reflections.
What a beautiful little fishing village, so quiet and peaceful. The quiet waters make for perfect reflections.
Wow, what "weekend reflections" opportunities abound in this quaint fishing village! I'll have to check it out someday, seeing as how it's not too far away. I love the picture with the dog, especially, but they're all lovely!
Stunning pictures. Works of art !
These photos are wonderful and the reflections make them even better!
A super set of photos - good to see the different takes.
Must be a joy for the sense of sound as well, beautiful picture indeed. Thank you for this much needed escape ! Please have a good new week.

your reflection fotos are just wonderful and soothing to look at. ^0^
i esp. like the details of the houses, something i'm not familiar with.
it would've been interesting to live in a place like this. ^0^
These reflections are so beautiful and so clear!
An excellent set of reflections.
