Nice!! That one is high on my list of favorites because of how the yellow looks with the green background. I'm glad you like these & appreciate your feedback. :beer:

These are really cool shots. These are worthy of the cover of Photonics Spectra.

Most of them were shot with fast shutter speeds, high in the f range & low appature because of the distance I was shooting from and depth of field I wanted to capture. I barely used low light settings despite being in a dark environment because the lasers are bright enough to capture the detail I want. Slower shutter speeds produce a heavier, 'lightsaber-like' beams instead of more genuine beams of light. At this scale that produces too much light pollution for the backgroud & the crystals to stand out the way they do :beer:

Impressive pictures man, I had a few questions thought; what are the outputs of the lasers you are using for these shots, what sort of prisms are you using, and do you know any sites to get good deals on some?

Thanks! The lasers I used varied with output, depending on the setting from each picture. Most of the time these dont exceed 200mW because that's more than enough to get the picture(s) I want.

Most of the optics I used were from the Wicked Lasers Optics kit. I used a few additional random crystals as well.

Do I know any sites to get any good deals on optics/prisms? Not really, no. You can try Wicked Lasers for ordering an optics kit or search google for crystals :beer:
