Bushido Loc: No Where and Every Where
 
We have come to a new challenge, and as fate would have it I get to start you off on a new adventure. Glass can be a photographer's nightmare and yet when done well give a sense of real accomplishment. This is going to be another lesson in seeing, or as Sherlock Holmes would say “in the power of observation”. Keep in mind that glass reflects everything, however in this challenge it should only reflect what enhances the picture. Look closely at the item and insure only the reflections that you see are the ones you intended to be there. There are several good videos on YouTube about this subject. Here is one link that shows you how to do it without expensive equipment and what to look for during setup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlQwt7_ZXKg
As always have fun and keep in mind I will be watching. Here are a few to get you started.

The first "glass" is clear and reflects light. The others are stained.





This is the clear one, the others are stained

A various look at local glass in our home. #2 has a great history and to give you a hint, inlanders have no idea but itis not their fault, these were not used there
