Here's a quick try to get the beams of these wonderful lasers to show, the fog was, "barely there" Spyder III 473nm and PGL III 589nm
btw, look at the yellow beam reflected in the water in the top pic, this is the color I see in the dot, my camera is seeming to make the yellow redder looking. Enjoy!

idk, but the beams look brighter without the flash, so this may make it appear yellower.

Nice shots, you got two very pricey lasers right there. To bad your camera made the 589nm laser look really red.

Review, well mostly I asked to use the Spyder to get some beam shots, Hemlock Mike wrote a great review and the laser still preforms the same.

Here's the WL EVO and Spyder I:

Yeah, I have noticed the sky is exactly the color of the street lights, which are sodium- mercury lights. Our eyes adjust, but the camera sees all the yellow and orange those lights emit the most in. ;) -Glenn

I personally like more dense fog, like in this shot I posted before:
14-foggy-night-beams-002.jpg
and here w/ flash on:
13-foggy-night-beams-001.jpg
That flash sure shows how much fog there was! ;)
Remember there is a flash on the 2nd pic on post #1 I can't imagine how bright these two new laser's beams would look in the thick fog of those early "rainbow" laser pics (outdoors at least), but I do have a fog machine, so I'll do some indoor shots soon.

Dense fog here, is very rare, I am near Chino, CA in fact I am on a hill of the "Chino Hills" but not in the town of Chino Hills. They predicted dense fog last night, but it was slight again! Rats! -Glenn

Strange how the yellow one appears red. I've seen the same thing in videos about gas lasers made by billg519. His camera made his yellow HeNe laser appear red.
