Thanks Steve, But the light through the window was added over the original shadow from the original picture. Maybe it just appears smaller from the angle the photographer took the picture. Here is the original picture.

Five seconds to darken the background and I created the dramatic picture I wanted to see. Excellent.

Thanks Steve, I spent so long trying to get the glass looking right and then not enough on composition! Will try and remember for next time.

Mick, Your second entry is truly stunning, how about a tutorial on your technique.

Hi Rufus, I never give tutorials, but I can tell you, all of what I've learned came from Steve's most excellent book. Basically, I took a real stained glass photo, cut it apart, pasted onto the Jack, added some glass, and viola! It was probably more work that I care to admit. If I ever come up with something that isn't covered in Steve's book, I'll share it....

All the best, Mick

Thanks Mick,

There's enough there for me to have a go myself.
