Wavy Old Glass

This is a picture that I wanted of this pretty scene. It was a big tall window in a big tall house. But the picture kept turning out 'funny' and the glass looked all wavy and reflected weird.



After several tries that turned out like THIS, I gave up and moved on.


I passed back by later on that evening and made one more try. To my surprise, the photo turned out nice and clear.

And you can actually tell what is in the window....lovely old candlesticks, probably heirlooms....and a bright Chinese vase with tall flowers in it. You can  also make out the tiered curtains and the fancy swag above them.
What a difference lighting makes. And how glad I am I tried again.........

    I like being able to see what's in the window but once I've seen it...I want to go back to the wavy look. More like a painting to hang on the wall! Oh yea....wanna go fishin' with me? hahaha! hugs, Diane

    Lighting certainly does make a difference. I only wish that I could go through life being backlit. Ha! Very pretty pictures both way. I think the first ones remind me of a Monet painting.
