Sparkling in the sunshine by filsie65

Sparkling in the sunshine

I've been collecting odd bits of coloured glass for years - some nice, some junk but it all sparkles beautifully on my glass shelves on the landing... especially when it's dusted!
beautiful light and I love the sky in the background.

How fun, I love your collection and it does look perfect with that blue sky!

Wonderful shot. I love the POV from below with the blue sky behind everything. You did a great job on this pic and all your collecting. Love it. You're right, your window shelves are very much like mine. I think I like your photo better. The blue sky just makes everything look amazing. Thanks for posting this.

I love your beautiful colorful glass in the sun. How inspiring that would be every day -- or every day the sun is out!.

@cfitzgerald @lbmcshutter @racheleyes @greyman @mariboo @christiehicks @annamaker @n0pants3ver Thank you all so much for your lovely comments - I do love the glass, it even seems to sparkle at night and if there's a big moon floating past it can look magical! I took this angle because I wanted to miss the buildings outside the window while catching the sunlight so I'm glad you think it worked well. :)

@mtorres_usa @etherley @everydaylife365 @johnnyfrs Gosh thank you so much - I love looking at it on the screen as well as when I walk past it now. It also forms a discreet privacy screen but yes, Lyn, cleaning it is a pain so I make sure if I move anything I put it back in exactly the same place then you don't notice the dust.... hahaha! :)

Wow, You and Christie must be soul mates. Great shot.

@sabanford Thank you for all your lovely comments on my photos! Christie's glass collection is much tidier than mine and probably gets dusted more often!! How lovely to have a hobby that you can do together, hope you enjoy it as much as you seem to! Very best wishes :)

I didn't know you collect glass Phil! I've always wanted to add to my very small collection of glass - love this pic! x

@koolkel79 Yes, it's mostly junk shop stuff but I do love it. Won a prize on the WI raffle on Tuesday and chose a green glass jug! Not the most stylish accessory to be walking down the road with!! :) x

This is a wonderful image (I've faved it because I love glass) with all the myriad of different colours and shapes. What a great idea to take a photo with the glass against the blue sky - it really brings out all those fabulous details.
I wish I had such a space to display my small collection of glass. I love cobalt blue glass and I have some pretty pieces left to me by grandparents and parents, but nothing like yours :-)

My collection is of mirrors...tiny and all shapes...I only have them on the mantel..these glass shelves look much more appealing! I shall photo them one day and post!
