Reflective glass is often a bonus to the photographer. In some cases it is pure reflection, often subject to a degree of distortion. In other cases – and this is an example – you get a mix of see-through and distorted reflection.
In this image we have geometric lines from the interior, areas of reflected sky and the reflected facade of the building opposite. The overall result is chaos but there are rational lines that criss -cross the image too.
One of the best window reflections with see-through I’ve ever seen. Well done, Andy!

I like it very much, Andy, it’s well-controlled chaos. I’m curious about what it looked like before processing – I guess because I wonder how much the “smoothing” made it more readable. I hope that makes sense.

Hi Lynn. Yes, the processing has smoothed the image which has helped to accentuate the detail. it’s a combination of Topaz Clean and then employing the High Pass filter

This is absolutely fabulous, Andy. It brought to mind the 1913 Armory Show, and the Cubists. I’m particularly fond of Duchamp, but there are others that come to mind. It has a Mediterranean feel to it as well: like Santorini seen through a kaleidoscope.

Hi Linda, thanks for those thoughts. I saw a little bit of cubism in the final result. The distortion is what often attracts me to these reflections. The blue cast over much of the image was a bonus
