Default Re: The Ultimate Cover Up, Plastic or Glass?????

I'm resurrecting this one after walking through a local art fair.

I was paying attention to more presentation of photography this time around. Almost every photographer had their images behind glass. Only ONE photographer had a few not behind glass and the rest of his were behind a glass product called "CrystalView". That one impressed me. I literally had to tap it to see if it was there!

On some photos, I saw condensation inside the glass since they had been left out overnight in the booths. The fairly fast changes in temperature caused moisture buildup...inside the glass next to the photo. These were not cheap photographs, either.

Given the bad glare and lack of apparent need for the glass, I'm starting to seriously question whether glass is even necessary in a framed photograph.
