Color Change

Jewelry made with dichroic glass have the ability to 'adapt' to what we are wearing.  This is in part due to the fact that light is already reflecting back at you due to metal layers in the glass.  This reflective property seems to intensify the colors that are near it, making them appear to 'pop' out in the piece.  I did a series of photos using the same pendant in hopes of demonstrating what we see in real life.  I believe the effect is somewhat muted, however you be the judge and see if you notice a difference as you scroll down to each photograph.  Take note of what you notice first when you look at each picture.  What parts of the pendant are your eyes drawn to?
