Don't know what causes it..... had wondered if it was our drinking water which my other half refuses to drink..... we joke about it being radioactive! My photos were taken on a sunny day (I had to wait for sun to go in behind clouds) on an internal windowsill in bright light. Also wonder if the age of the poppies means a loss of silver? Just a thought as I seem to remember that your poppies were quite ahead of ours. I used a tumbler for most of my shots and a wineglass for the first one. I also tried a cut glass brandy glass but that did nothing extra. Loved your choice of music by the way :O)))))
I wonder if the silvering would have been more pronounced if you had used a cylindrical glass vessel?
ReplyDeleteIt is a remarkable effect though.
