For the Macro Mondays Theme 'Glass'.
I always wanted to look deep inside one of these glasses (see first comment box), this was my chance ;-))
Happy Macro Monday everyone and have a lovely start of this new week!
For the Macro Mondays theme: "Pick Two", my choice is "Speckled Glass"
You are looking through one of the glasses of my glasses, like you were wearing it yourself. And the ones, who have to wear glasses know, how easy those glasses get dirty and how annoying rain can be…..I only see speckles, but the camera also see the frame ;-))
Happy Macro Mondays everyone!

Photographing glass is challenging. Infuriating. Rewarding? I’ve shot this wine glass many times and each time I get a completely different result. Should you backlight or side light or in this case a bit of both? I used a green plastic bag over my LED light to create the colour, the other hues are refractions and reflections from random objects on the table.
I tried a whole array of subjects this week, up to the wire on time again!

I visited a butterfly glass house last month with family and was thrilled to see one of these amazing creatures which I've marvelled at in photos on here.
I'm always a little anxious when visiting animals in captivity, but the owner seemed knowledgeable and breeds for reputable places like Kew Gardens and Wisley.
On looking closely it seemed that this beauty had lost its two front legs and I worried that it had been trodden on or damaged in some other way, but apparently glass winged butterflies have two very short front legs which are used only for smelling and tasting!

Venetian glass brought back from Morano in the early 1970s on my way through Italy as I followed the line of the WWII Allied invasion through Italy.

This was shot with the lens wide open at f2.8.
Another look at this beautiful chapel ceiling. As the sun and clouds play above the stained glass the light and colors change, adding a presence to the space.
Thank you so much for all of your views and faves! I truly appreciate your feedback.

Hanging on more and more to things that remind me of summer. This was my warm weather obsession. I think, if I were hearty enough and went down there now, I'd find all kinds of pieces of glass, since the scavengers (like myself) will be fewer this time of year.
Ottawa's downtown, unique Convention Centre, on the Rideau. And yes it's in the shape of a large, glass spacesip. Beautiful to see in person.

Built in 1886 by Col. Walter Gresham who fought in the U.S. Civil War. The house was then one of the most lavish and massive homes in the U.S. and is a Victorian adaptation of a Renaissance style.
The Catholic Diocese bought the home in 1923.
