@WelshBlue so clever how you create your pieces. And talk about coco fog I don’t call my fibro Fiona it’s Fatima lol typo error!

Thanks. 
I call my Fibro' Fog - Dangerous ... never a safe thing to call your wife by your ex wife's name 

@Roddy ... hat off to you.  Beautiful.  The Art Deco period is something I've always loved

@Neets ... great pieces.  They really appeal to my sense of 'weird'.  In a good way

I like weird ... maybe because so many people have told me I am.  Including my wife and kids lol

@katz23 cool shot….couldn’t you get comfortably closer to the Toadstools??? Like macro close?? Just asking 🙏🙏🙏

Hi @GLASSBACK

Wish I could, I just took the picture with my phone.

I would like to learn about photography. - I love nature.

This is a further piece I'm currently working on. I've finished carving the glass, and so I'm now creating a lamp base for it. Lighting the bottom edge (only) will produce fibreoptic effects throughout all of the design, but the brightness will be emphasised on certain features & edges to provide depth & perspective. At 23" x 15" It's the largest panel that I've produced.

@katz23
as it happens… I’m a photographer! Been involved with it most of my life! I started in Portrait photography and Weddings, special events etc…Then recently moved over to concentrating on Landscape photography! 

I have a pro level camera and use Photoshop Lightroom. That’s not to say that you need anything like that to begin with! Simply using your phone is sufficient. Especially if you are not going to make large prints of your work? If you are interested in starting photography? I would recommend you go on YouTube and search for photography for beginners ? If you have any questions but you are too embarrassed or scared to ask?? I’m absolutely sure I can help you in a more descriptive and helpful manner for you. Just so you can understand the why’s and what fors??

@GLASSBACK Oh wow!!!

How lovely to hear that you are a photographer and have now an interest in Landscapes and Nature. - These are the two areas that I would like to do - I wouldn’t be able to do portraits, weddings or special events as I am a bit of a loner and I can’t stick to scheduling anymore.

At least with nature you can do it as and when it’s right for you.

Thank you so very much for your advice and encouraging words and offer of help 🙏🙏🙏 

I will definitely dig into YouTube….

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction 😊

Oh my word @Roddy, you are so talented.

This piece of artwork is absolutely incredible - I love it 😍 

I can’t wait to see it lit up…

Thank you for posting !!!

I love photography go out most days ,it keeps me sane and I get exercise...

Colin123

Try to walk in local parks or along canals ,have been going out and been busy taking photos, have low moods and it helps me a lot and get exercise and fresh air, It's a struggle most days, today was in a woods near me. Got photos of Kingfisher and a Heron today. I have disabilities and walk short distances and use a crutch .

katz23
