This is the one photo in this series I did not just stumble across. I planned this one. First step was using our 130 year old Tarentum Glass, Thousand-eye goblet. Then I filled it with a red wine and took a close up of the side reflecting the light of our Christmas tree through the whole piece. Tarentum Glass came from the area of Pittsburgh near where we lived and was collected by my Aunt Carrie who was an authority on that type of glass. The construction is such that looking into the glass produces scores of reflections and those reflections have smaller ones and so forth, thus the name, Thousand Eye. Each of the glass circles are about 3/16 in diameter and concave on the inside. After the photo was taken I edited it, straightened the sides and adjusted the brightness.
