About This is the base of a Finish glass bowl that was given to us as a wedding present 23 years ago. I simply held it up against the window - the green reflection is the grass in the back yard and the deeper red is the colour of the roof in the house next door.

I knew this bowl would be useful for something one day!

It's all a bit embarrassing - there are far better photographers on the site than I am, who deserve the front page more than I do! Anyway, I suppose I just have to grin and bear it! Life has a habit of throwing challenges at us along the way! :)))

It is special, Phil!

yeah.. i just need a day of down time (or just an hour to relax) and start shooting some glass. I tried all weekend, and according to our honest and good friends here on UF... I failed :) I kinda knew it, and to be honest, was rushing the shot, and not relaxed.

I have a plan :)

You nailed this on Phil! ..even clicking back on this to catch your reply, the image warps around the viewer.. there's no edge, and no end to the depth. Well done! (again!)

cheers,

Oh, Doyle, thanks for your comments!

I must say I was pretty thrilled when this one won. When I processed it, I had a good feeling about it - it just seemed to 'pop' off the screen. The two awards were made within a minute or so of uploading it.

Now, I'll have to work hard and see if I can do it again! :))))
