Leigh,The object photographed is a peacock "suncatcher" made of colored glass that hangs in our window. The tail feathers cover the spectrum like a rainbow. It was backlit by bright white daylight reflected off of snow covering the back yard. Camera to subect distance was about 6 feet. The spectrum of colors in the tail feather glass were abstracted from its texture and lead frame by focusing at infinity. The 600mm focal length was chosen to get as much focus mis-match as possible.
Its bold colors are growing on me. Recently had an 8x12 print of the Kodachrome slide made for framing.
Thanks,
