some pics from the archives

[brucemir]

I am now fully moved into my new house and have started to unpack all of my lasers and such. The painters will be painting my laser room black by early next week and then I can start setting up my lasers and accessories and start to photograph again. But in the meantime here are some pics I took in January of this year. A few of them were posted in various threads (I think), but most of them have not.

These pics were taken using 4 lasers pointed at 4 mirrors, which were pointed up making a pyramid shape. I started with four green lasers to test everything before I changed it to a 650, 589, 532, and 445nm. These were eventually bounced into a reflective fan grating, and reflective matrix grating.I also used my large glass sphere and added a 473nm going thru a transmission fan grating at the end. Enjoy.

Wow! :drool: That is beautiful! Looking at your pics, it is like being at a Pink Floyd show. Please tell me you had some cool music playing. These pics have me wanting to crank up Dark Side if the Moon...

Looking fantastic as always Bruce! :beer:
These photos can be a kind of farewell to your old garage studio.

VanillahGorilla - they were taken in January of 2015 so there is a very good chance I was listening to Pink Floyd The Endless River since it had come out before that.

bowtieguy - yes it is a farewell from my garage studio. I should be photographing again next Friday.

Always the most wonderful photos. Always make sure I take time to just admire photos when you post them.

I can't even come up with the right words so I will just say that those images are absolutely beautiful <3
I remember those stands from Earth Science, Physics and Chemistry
Will all the walls, floor and ceiling be black? Will it be flat black?
Did you use a fish eye lens for some of those pictures?

WOW just wow! Absolutely spectacular thanks for sharing!

 

[brucemir]

Thanks Gr3en and Noob!

Hi Laserchick,
The walls and ceiling will be painted black. Yes it will be a flat black (Benjamin Moore paint) The floor will be tiled in dark gray as they are the darkest of the cheapest 12x12 tiles. And yes some of the shots were taken using a fisheye lens. With that lens I can set up the camera 8" away from the action and get everything in.

Cool, happy for you that you get a great place for your hobby and what a hobby it is
Plus when you share it brings joy to the rest of us, thanks for sharing your pictures.
