One of my photographs got stuck to its frame's glass and now now I'm trying to take the picture off. How can I do the peeling process easier?

I've answered this same question at least twice recently, and Doug has a point. My other answers however were to take it to a professional photo lab. For one thing they have the experience; and might also suggest and offer than a duplication be made, before any attempt at removal.
Hopefully too they will suggest, as I do now, PHOTOS should never directly touch glass.

You can do this very slowly and carefully by putting the glass with the photo stuck on in a sink of warm water. The water will soften the emulsion on the photo and so that you can slide it off the glass. Don't rush...the water probably won't soak through the paper and will have soften the emulsion from the edge of where it's stuck. Don't worry about getting the photo wet...they used water to process the image in the first place. After you're done peeling the photo of the glass set it down to dry for an hour or two. The photo should be fine and you'll get your frame back.

warmth some water no longer excessively warm now ok, pour that into the glass enable it sit down for some seconds then supply the percenta tug gently , because of the fact the glass heats up it might soften the stickness,
