This was a difficult challenge for me- I found out just how hard it is to take photos of glass. The reflectivity was my problem, trying not to get distracting stuff that takes your focus away from the piece itself. Especially difficult was this one, which is a piece of smoked glass that I sandblasted a picture on. It used to be a stereo cabinet door, and when the cabinet fell apart I kept the door, and just keep it in my window.
Mostly, I went with glass used in art, such as this window in our church:
This is an antique carnival glass dish from my husband's family, it is a lovely piece of art:
Also from Ted's collection, can you guess what this is?
It is the bottom of an antique shot glass.

You did VERY well photographing everything. I found this a hard challenge to do WITH the camera not the subject.
That first one was pretty darn good!
You sandblasted the first photo? Wow!!!! I have seen such artwork, but have no idea how they aremade.
I like the last one, a very New Zealand art form, the Koru or the spial, and the blue is simply amazing
I love carnival glass. That last one looks like a blueglass bottle.
You did a great job with the photos-and the sandblasting!
Oh my, I just LOVE stained glass. I bet your church is beautiful!
Glass is tough. Love how you can see through the sandblasted glass panel. The antique carnival glass dish is so cool!
Great shots, you have a very good eye.
Oh, those are absolutely gorgeous! Fabulous post ~

The blue shot glass pic is really good. and if you ever get sick of that first etching, well, I gotta place to hang it.
