On the first series of pics I tried to use the "U" configuration again, repositioning a few lasers and adding a laser in the middle of the "U" with fan and matrix diffraction gratings using a 473nm and 589nm.
This week my Dragon Laser gratings from NO4H99's Group Buy arrived. Thanks again NO4H99! I was able to get a reflective fan and matrix grating, besides 2 more transmission fan gratings. I know DL has been out of stock on the reflective ones for at least a year and a half so it was nice to finally get a few. Since the lasers bouce off of them as opposed to passing through them, the are much easier to photograph since the glass is not overexposed like the transmission ones. The second half of the pics are using them. By bouncing lasers into them at different angles, and bending the angle of the grating itself, they can form straight lines or curved lines. I was able to adjust the level of curvature making for some creative photos. There are also a few using the fan transmission fan gratings and I broke out the thin plastic mylar gratings on a few. The last two pics are of a small glass skull I got from a mineral store. Enjoy
