Dude, the beam is such a nice shade of blue. <3

How long of an exposure did you use and what is your white balance? I don't see many pics with that nice "Flare" around the aperture and LED.

I got more picture of the 80mW 473nm laser here, http://laserpointerforums.com/f48/three-blues-misty-night-77749.html

You need a very small camera aperture like f16-f22 to get that star/flare effect.
A tripod is a must with these long exposure shots.

Hey guys, guess what I'm going to say. CHECK THE POST DATES BEFORE POSTING. It wouldn't be as bad, but something like "i can't see the pics" should be left to a PM.

Why should it be left to PM when hes obviously posted them on an open forum !!
I know the dates i bought 1 last year FFS

I love this! I sometimes miss my 120mW 473 that I built into an Ehgemus host. And then I remem...nope, I still miss it, everyday. But Brucemir is taking wonderful pics and that makes it worth it. Mostly.

Great shots! I am going to attempt see how an 8-point star filter will affect my beamshots sometime. And using a small aperture was some of the best advice I ever got for shooting lasers.

I have no problems with the pictures. They are visible to me.
The 473nm is an awesome color. Very different than the usual 445nm.
Due the DPSS laser it needs 1-2 min warming up to show the full potential power. I still have this laser and love it very much.
