Photo Challenge — Reflect This - Day Three and Ruby Tuesday


hosted by Mary The Teach **


And...
Reflect this is hosted by Quilly - this week only, until 8/23!

I wanted a combined entry and this is what I got... after struggling with a red ruby tea light in the pool and checking the position of the sun to see if I could get my own reflection on the water... It isn't easy to get the wanted snapshot at all!! Here is my make-up mirror, contributing with a reflection for the cause...

For those of you wondering about yesterday's reflection: it was my son taking a shot of myself but it was him reflected on my goggles...you can see my red scarf too, now that I think of it, I could have had a re-run today and a quiet Monday afternoon!!

Award time: the wonderful June from Spatter honored me with the following award.


Thank you very, very much, June!! She is a brilliant blogger herself, she has a fantastic blog and is a wonderful photographer. I never follow the tagging rules because it is so hard to select just a few bloggers. But...since it is the third Brillante Weblog I receive, I think everybody in my google- reader list should get one...!! Happy Tuesday!

  7. Very nice ! Two in one, just like "Wash & Go" !
    Mr. Gattino will be green of jalousy when I tell him that Mr. Mar will attend the Formula 1 LIFE !!! That's the only sport he watches on television and NOBODY (not even cat Arthur) is allowed to make a noise !!
