Kimba, Issabella, Pat and jappeloe1963 - thank you for your comments.

A smaller glass this time, featuring painted, prancing horses and set, appropriately, at dusk in the beautiful Kimberley region of north western Australia. A frosted glass frame distort to finish it off :)

A couple more to finish of my clear glass binge ...... if you like afternoon 'high tea' then you need the right location and the right 'high tea cup'. Also an eagle on the Ord River at sunset.

Here's at go at some gimp vintage, it's a bit rough as I don't really know what I'm doing yet :hehe Had to cheat choosing background colours that make the glasses show up.

Love the shine on yours :bigthup

Teapot - brilliant, you did it and also discovered one of the little problems you need to overcome with this 'clear glass technique', getting a background colour that works well with the glass. Different layer modes work better in some situations. Recently I have been using 3 glass layers with bottom layer set to Burn, the one above it set to Grain Merge and the top one to Multiply - but you have to be flexible with them.

Twin necked glass carafe, this time showing off the vines in a Hunter Valley sunset with the Blue Mountains in the distance and a couple of wedged tailed eagles on the hunt.

On our trip to the Kimberley, I seemed to be the only one in the group that could see the old church in the lake at the top of Emma Gorge :roll:
