WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK: Part 506 - Glass

Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This weeks the theme is Glass. As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.


Show us some examples of Glass

Here are the rules:
1. Shots need to be taken between Monday Sunset and the following Monday by Sunset (Whenever that is for you ). Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives. Snapshots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!
2. Post your shots at any time during the week.
3. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e. embedding them), but keep within POTN rules. Also keep within POTN rules about size. A copy of the size rules can be found here: IMAGE POSTING RULES
That's it! Have fun! As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.
An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK INDEX

That's it!
Have fun!

I'm expecting to see some of the glass museum from you Kody!
However, that is a lovely bit of glass, there.

I've already thought of that I just hope the weather cooperates this week. I'll have to bring my camera to work with me the rest of the week and hope the rain lets up.

Nice start Kody

Getting old glass

A little bit of L glass

That's a cool looking watch, Kody. I confess I've never heard of Sea-Gull watches, but I'm not much of a watch aficionado.

70-200 and 24-105, Pete??

Hmmm, this topic is giving me some ideas. Here's a simple little glass keepsake I have. I decided to play a little bit with the lighting on it illuminating it from below with an LED flashlight under a piece of blue glass and then did light painting from behind for the remaining illumination.

Nice lighting Lisa..

Those are some known sharp lenses Pete

Thanks Lisa and Joayne.

Lisa it is the 70-200 2.8, 24-105 f4, and a 400 5.6

Thanks Lisa. Sea-Gull watches are actually a Chinese brand. They are very well made and also well liked among the watch community. Well among some. lol There are many countries that produce watches. Russia, Germany, Switzerland of course, Japan even some in the USA. When I say produce, I mean they make the whole watch from the movement to the case etc. It's a requirement for being "Swiss Made" or "Made in Germany" etc. For example, to be "Swiss Made" 51% of the value of the watch has to be assembled in Switzerland. Similar rules exist for other countries. So as a collector it's fun to have watches from all over the world. I personally own Chinese, Japanese and Swiss as well as some others that I won't attempt to explain as this is already long enough
