Then the T5 lights... blue plus on back and white on front of back pane causes an illusion of infinite depth. From what I gather pics do no justice.


Another example


Check out this one...

You beat me to it. I was going to suggest a shadow box as well. They are amazing when done right.

Here is a great thread on building shadow boxes.
