Glass

What an interesting challenge. Glass can be transparent, translucent or opaque and all can reflect light in different ways. Here are a few I came up with on the spot.

Bushido, I really appreciate the time you are giving by starting these challenges. Your images are just great - the first one is my favorite! Here are some of mine taken in late March at Fort Clinch in Fernandina Beach, FL. Old glass in the old structures fascinates me! Also, as much as I love the convenience of paper and plastic, I couldn't help thinking how much better off our civilization would be if glass were as prevalent today in our lives as it was back then!


Looks like a very interesting place. Thanks for sharing the glass with us... How is mom?

You missed the Florida snowman snow globe. This is a wonderful substitution. Nice shot.

Probably should have gotten out a tripod-might have gotten clearer image...

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.
