yeah i agree with nick its pretty cool looking.. you should try to take it again but use like a light thats a different color like a laser pointer or something that would look cool shooting through the glass.

I like that too. It looks like an artistic chain-link fence. My feeling is that you should emphasize the oranges. :)

The random patterns are really interesting. I like it. I was also thinking, what if you try to adjust the RGB level curves or the exposure to bring out more detail and increase luminosity? Nonetheless, nice shot :)

I tried to do some editing, not sure exactly what i did, but at least something changed :)
It's not the exact same shot, but its same time and place. And the shot settings are the same as well...

Cool photos. Could you trick the camera into focusing through the glass with the fracture lines in focus? :)

I guess you could with manual focus and a much higher f-numer. But then you would need a tripod, since the shutter speed would be a lot slower.
