Black Glass Versus Clear Glass

Here are 2 photos from the 2021 shooting season. Both are 4x5 images, the tree on black glass and the forest scene on clear glass with the acrylic paint blackening and 1 varnish. I like the black glass but find the clear glass superior because of the look through the glass 3D like glow you get in the image. There is also the illusion of the subject, that moment in time, being caught forever INSIDE the glass.

Dim Sum followed me downstairs and went right to work at my side
