The light source is a chandelier with a bunch of small lights, so it throws multiple shadows at slightly different angels. Because the glass isn&#8217;t perfectly smooth or pure, and because it is blue, there are bright lines in the light coming through the glass, crisscrossing each other to form these patterns on a sheet of white paper I put under the glass. Naturally, as the glass gets thicker toward the bottom, the light shining through it becomes bluer.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5055\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5055\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125-350x233.jpg\" alt=\"Misty Mountains\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.henryhartley.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/img_20140106_075125.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5055\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Misty Mountains<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After taking a bunch of pictures of the shadows of the glass, I tried using a blue glass vase that was in the room.
