We asked our readers to send in their best pictures on the theme of “glass”. Here is a selection of the photographs we received from around the world.
Long Truong
Long Truong: “Between glass and sea, between presence and memory. Shot at sunset along the California coast, using glass as a portal to blend reality with memory.”
Sandy McCune
Sandy McCune: “While travelling across London, I noticed this person engrossed in their mobile phone while leaning up against the glass.”
Gill Stevens
Gill Stevens: “The Herring Gull would tap on the skylight window above my work desk, much to my amusement. I think it also looks like it’s standing on ice.”
Jane Luetkens
Jane Luetkens: “I am of the age when I am losing my marbles but came across the marbles I played with as a child. I still find them beautiful.”
Stephen Carrigan
Stephen Carrigan: “I used my lens ball on Crosby beach Liverpool. It was a beautiful, still evening with the statue looking on. Love the reflection from the ball.”
Mark Ashmeade
Mark Ashmeade: “Taken in a bar with dozens of glasses – with a 50-year-old Minolta Rokkor PG F1.2 58mm lens on a modern camera. The lens just melts everything else outside the subject glass. Wonderful.”
Jojo Arnell
Jojo Arnell: “Selfie in the reflection of a broken shop door window in Plymouth UK, 2019.”
Seán Silvia and Izabela Matysiak
Seán Silvia and Izabela Matysiak: “We inhabit and project ourselves onto our city in a multi-layered conceptualisation, leaving reflections that place us deeply within and flat against, colouring the cityscape with our shadows.”
Sven-Olof Jansson
Sven-Olof Jansson: “Shot this Las Vegas glass roof from beneath, as it was Illuminated by a low January sun.”
Philip Warriner
Philip Warriner: “I took this picture using a macro lens to capture close-up bubbles on glass.”
Gianlorenzo Masini
Gianlorenzo Masini: “Red wines demand respect.”
Sean Corlett
Sean Corlett: “When the weather isn’t the best, this is a pretty good indoor photography project. I have placed an iPad in a dark cupboard and then put a bulb on top of that. Whatever is displayed on the iPad is reflected in the glass of the bulb. I tried several different pictures on the iPad but this one is my favourite.”
Sirsendu Gayen
Sirsendu Gayen: “The colours of a rainy day through the glass window of the car.”
