Stained Glass today

Post by redcrx »

I have a Stained Glass that is looking ugly this season. I was thinking it was cold damage but today I noticed some odd markings coming off the veins. But when I looked at the photo the lead has a weird color pattern.
This is a crop of the second photo to highlight the area.

Ed, that almost looks as if you have TWO kinds of virii showing in some of these shots: HVX and TRS. I've never seen examples of the sort of moire pattern you see in the first picture as being representative of HVX, so it's gotta be something else I'd say.
