Has anyone ever engraved a photo on glass?
Not me, but:
I was wandering through the aisles at Lowes (looking for things to laser). I found these glass tiles. But I am happy with the results. I just need to tweak the image better.
I wished I had seen this before I started.

Maybe exaggerating the contrast might get more of the details from the back to show through or maybe a second pass. Hard to tel…
So I tried to engrave on a piece of glass with a photo. At first it looked like a negative to me. But when I put it up to a lit up background it looked like the photo. Kind of cool. I wonder if there is something amazing to make with this idea.

There may be more - use the search function for “photo glass” and dig around

Thank you! I think that will help ^_^. That is such a wonderful idea!
Thanks for your help @ deirdrebeth . Since this question is outside our team’s scope. I’ve moved it to the Beyond the Manual so the discussion can continue there.
