What Do We Have Here?

What do we have here? Lots and lots and lots of colourful surrealistic objects produced by reflected and refracted light on imperfect glass set into windows at slightly different planes. This is one to meditate upon.

LIKEd. This one is among your best. Those surreal signs remind me of Guernica reflected onto those glasses...in special way figures on the left

Thank you Giulio. I see what you mean by Guernica. Uncanny actually. I also feel this is one of my most interesting. Lots of “content”.

I like this a lot! I can image this would look great in a poster size print on a (gallery) wall. LIKEd

I too was thinking this one belongs on a wall.

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

The left-hand set says Hieronymus Bosch to me... lovely!
Well done on POTW

Thank you all for your compliments. When you zoom in on this photo, hundreds of otherwise unseen things appear, and to me that is the fascinating thing about this image.
Glass and light: thank the photographic gods for them both.
