Huddled Pedal Boats

Xiamen, Fujian, 2009

Bright pedal boats glow brightly on a gray day. They huddle in the water in West Lake Park, waiting for the next fine day when squealing children and courting lovers would once again take them for pleasure trips.

Nicely reflected for Weekend Reflections.

These are lots of fun! And you've proven once again how great photography can be on a "dull" day. Fantastic colors and reflections and no lousy white-outs.

Ebie said...

Very colorful! Must be so exciting for lovers and sweethearts enjoying the ride!

this color is a bright spot in my day today. I didn't get the snow I was hoping for, so this is the next best thing! we have paddle boats on the lagoon here, but they surely aren't colorful like these. this is a wonderful reflection shot. happy weekend to you Francisca.

Oooh Francisca what a great find. Wonderful colors and shapes too. Well spotted and captured.

they make a beautiful puzzle. Did you go on it? I have never been on one, the ones in Singapore, the weather was too hot to be appealing.

What a very cool shot, Francisca!

They remind me of crayola crayon colors! Bet that's a fun activity at the park!

I think that whenever I see tied-up pleasure boats...they're just waiting for the next beautiful day!

Nice colourful ones - I love the reflection. Can't remember the last time I went out on a pedal boat.
