to me, it appears to be some sort of lichen with a little snow on it. Mmmmmmmm....lichen!

No Shadow and no Ryan!

Ryan- there is no trick photography involved. I did not distort the photo.

I aimed my camera, and let it focus, and snapped the photo. It is what it is.

There is no attempt to disguise anything behind it.

It kind of reminds me of one of the tiles on the Zippo building on Barbour Street.

Then it has to be the clear rubber/plastic sheeting window on the cab of heavy equipment.... I am positive I see a dash behind it.

Nothing to do with heavy equipment, and it's not plastic.

And I have no idea what is behind it.

partially melted glass? Looks like buildings in the historic district being reflected off of it.

Jeff, you are very warm!

But rather than being a "blob" of a certain material, this is a distinct, defined OBJECT. But you are definitely in the right ball park!

You need to identify the object, not just the material or where it may or may not be located.

Jeff is very warm on both accounts.

Yes! It's from the old Gravitz building is it on Chestnut?

Ryan, Jefft was awfully close! You stole this one from him! LOL!

All I can see behind it is "dark". You guys are adding all that extra stuff.

My second guess would be a poster as seen through a window. Probably somewhere on Main St.

Man, I was on the right track. I knew those were buildings and sky reflected on it. Damn.
