Thanks everyone for submitting for the theme last week. This week's theme is "glass"!
On the window sill in our old house we had this glass sphere with "bubbles" inside. I have tried to photograph the sphere before, but never thought it would look (that) good in a contrasty black and white image. Even more pleased with the result because this is simply taken with my Motorolo Moto G7plus smartphone (which is not known for its photo-taking-capabilities :)
Lovely image.
While we were zipping around the bay, I noticed the texture of a broken pane of tempered glass in the back of the boat and started taking pictures. The boat turned, and then the sunrise became visible in the pane. Rather than including the sun directly, I decided the reflection of the sun on the water through the broken glass provided more interest.
The thicker lines running from the bottom left show what are likely the stress lines from the corner where warping caused the window to shatter.
