Nice Picture, You had it on Long exposer setting with a Diffraction Grading lens or a Star Galaxy lens and you moved the laser ever so slightly "Maybe back and forth within 1/4 to 1/2 inche" during the capture of Picture.:)

Yes long exposure with diffraction lens, the movement was inadvertant.

How did i achieve the glowing "tips" ?

Fog on the nearest part to the ceiling. Low clouds. Shone the beams through some optical medium such as acrylic.

Thats soooo close im gonna give it to you.

The picture was taken with a long lens, trained on the cloud base with my 500mW 532nm with a diffraction lens.

The brighter tips are the laser hitting cloud base. It looked a lot more impressive in real life.

Here is a wider angle shot with a tree so you can scale.

And here is the diffraction lens in the same fog, but on my 1.4W 445nm.

Damn that tree picture is awesome! Your first picture I was like 'meh, a blurry star cap' until you mentioned the tips. Then the tree picture..... it looks like 532 missle command during a multi-ball explosion.

Very impressive, awesome picture & effect!!

I really like the blue one best.
I too am having fun these days with rain, fog, low clouds and 50mw of green.
