Man, that sphere kicks @$$! Great pics!

I also use smoke, I put a bunch of burned matches in a small container and add some candle-wax. I let this "mix", if you will, catch fire and then I put a lid on it and it makes a TON of smoke. But of course it kills my eyes, and I get headache if I stay in the room for too long.


I'm saving money for a smoke machine now.

Thanks for the comments. [smiley=dankk2.gif] Photography is one of my other hobbies. I probably have around $3,000 worth of photo equipment.

There are some more pictures in the last post on the first page if you haven't seen them. I think my favorite picture so far is one of the VGR pictures. The 405 kind of "took over" in those 2 shots.

Yeah. The camera "sees" 405nm better than the human eye.

Nice pictures.

Peace,

Those pics with the sphere thing are really cool

If they were bigger and clearer, they would be wallpaper worthy!

And some more pictures.

Smoke coming off of the label side of a CD while pointing the laser at the data side of the CD.

Burning a hair.



My opinion of Mediacom.



Burning the coating on the outside of one on my lasers.

Re: videos/pics of my agate sphere, optics & laser

Well, I already have wallpaper that is awesome, so I don't need it...

I'm just commenting on the quality and colours

Re: videos/pics of my agate sphere, optics & lasers

I decided to take some more pics today. I'll probably redo the second picture once I get my ArIon from Dave.

Here is the before picture:

Man, I always drooled over argons with people like Daguin and Gooeygus showing them off all the time - now I have two sitting in my closet and all these Ar/Kr lasers are popping up all over. It's not fair (grats on the purchase though )

Re: videos/pics of my agate sphere, optics & lasers

I know what you mean. Now I want a high power one.

This unit came from Dave. I can't wait to see it running at normal operating range. The remote interface should be here today.

Very cool pic's Dr_Evil thought since you were showing round objects I would show you one of my round objects it's a 8" crystal ball with a couple different color lasers trained on it.

and just some violet lasers.

Later
