Small tulip panel measuring approx 11-1/2 x 15-1/2, framed in oak frame. Made using all Uroboros mottled glass- gold pink and white, ruby and red on white, various greens, and fracture streamer background.
Hi, Mrs.Jake. I am so sorry, I have not looked at this photo for a very long time, so was not aware you had written. I do really like Uroboros glass, and use it in a lot of my work. My other favorite is A.C. Fischer full antique. I used that in a large Tiffany reproduction window recently, such rich colors. As far as photographing, I use an older Sony MVC500 Mavica camera, which always takes good photos. I have found that the best pictures come from photographing your work with the sun behind you, in my case my window faces East, so I wait until late afternoon to take photos, when the sun would be in the West and behind me. People always make the mistake of trying to photograph windows while the sun is shining right through them, which mutes the colors, but if you really look at your windows, they always look their richest and most beautiful with the sun is opposite them. Give it a try, it makes a big difference. Michael.

Congrats! I hadn't seen this one :) Guess Uroboros is good to you! If you could give a tip on photographing a window...what would your advice be?
