Photograping Glass

[veejayr]

I'm in Phoenix, visiting my in-laws, and see that there' a interesting art glass exhibit at the local botanical gardens. Looks the like it's all outdoors and the weather looks as if it will be overcast all week.

Can anyone provide som tips for shooting glass outside??? I have a Canon Rebel xsi and a 28-135 mm lens, with me along with the 18-55 which came with the camera.


Thanks - and here's a link to the exhibition.

I had the opportunity to see this display over the Christmas holidays down in Arizona. Just stunning. So many of the pieces were make to look like the cactus they were displayed with. We saw the display at night, with very dramatic lighting. It was tough to photograph, but I got a few "keepers".

I am heading to the Phoenix area in three weeks I will have to put this on my list of things to do. Is it at the botanical gardens that is way out from the city? I think I was there a few years ago and would love to go back to take photos this time.
