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.

Epilog...

It was a learning experience for me to follow the Nesting Robin Family... I saw things that I have never before seen and it was an eye opening experience. It brought me new insight to events that have been happening all around me, but before now, I had not had the time, the luck, or the opportunity to witness one of nature's many wonders develop before my eyes. Thanks for taking the time to look and comment on my series the "Nesting Robin Family". To date, there are 42 original separate postings on the "Nesting Robin Family". The robin series has ended now and I miss them.

Yes I miss them... I look out the window each day as I pass by and I hope to see a new family of Robins in the nest. Maybe as the young Robins mature they will recall their home nest and return to start their own family of young Robins. Maybe another Robin couple will see the well built nest and use it to bear and raise their young... maybe... just maybe…
