Here, you're doing something that Andy liked to talk about: making a photo, instead of taking one.

That photo shows creativity and not a little cleverness too! I like it a lot.

The way the light refracts is super cool!

and especially invoking a technique Andy taught!!! Wow!!!

This image was purely accidental! I had to bring my reading glasses with me to search through a basement cabinet and just tossed them down on the table behind me. I happened to notice the light above made a cool shadow on the rough texture! Purely an accident. TY Peggy.

Did you find the refraction pattern by accident or were you looking for the right spot on purpose?

Purely accidental! I just tossed my glasses on the table and then when I went to retrieve them I noticed they made this weird looking shadow.
