Thanks a lot for the comment and :+fav: :thumbsup:

well it's kind of hard to explain but I tried to shoot along the glass and hold a mag lite, skimming the light across the glass as close to 180 degrees from the lens of my camera without bouncing the light directly into the lens creating lens flare... It sort of disguises any scratches and grime on the window. I also had a little help from our friend photoshop, of course.
