Need diving photo to turn into glass

[kevjl2]

I am looking for a digital photo that I can turn into a piece of stained glass art. It should include a diver and could include other marine life as well. Maybe some kelp, rocks and ?? I am looking for a picture that is a silhouette. Say a photo of a diver going to depth with the photographer below him with the sun shining down making the silhouette. ALso, something that is not copyright protected. If you have one, send me a link offline or send me the pic. I would like to turn it into a work of art. Kevin

This is an often used picture but I took it myself so it slearly isn't copyrighted. The extra diver adds bubbles but also a neat effect with him peeking over the edge. Probably not the best but it is a silhouette showing a diver and formations.

Edit: Upon futher examination, you could use a frosted or textured glas to represent the surface; then it might work well. Just a thought from a person who has made about 3 pre fabbed glass items and one original item using a kit. Perhaps just a section for more detail of the diver.

i have a question are you planning to do this for a personal item or do you have aspiration to sell this work? because there are other things to consider, like image owners copyrights, and other things. yes some people might say that if you change it enough (50%) you dont have to get permission, but isnt true at all, and a violation of a copyright can be very expensive (more then the work is worth).

My suggestion is that if you find aimage that you like and want to use is that you get in contact with the orginal creator and see if they will let you use it, or license it to you for the work (it may cost some money but its dependent on the photographer)

i hate to put it this way but alot of photographers amatuerand pros alike are very protective of there images, as with the internet most people think that they can take a image off the internet and do what ever they want without asking, which inturns can cost that person a great deal.

if you need any morehelp on this subject please feel free to ask them here or PM me and i will help you any way you can

I like this one Corey. Don't know for sure if I could translate it into glass. Kevin

Kev...I think Tooth had a very valid question. Not copywrited images could just give you free rein to take advantage and exploit the good nature of someone offering to help by reproducing and selling the image. If this is for a personal project, that's different.

The beginning of a stained glass empire!

Reminds me of the glow in the dark elvis plate collection I thought would move some serious units...

Anyone interested in eating off the king's jumpsuit?
