One of the things I’ve tried to habitually think of is taking shots with my crystal ball. So when I went on the photowalk through the Denver Zoo a few weeks back, I tried it out here and there.
Note to self: steadily hand-holding a crystal ball for long-exposure photography in sub-freezing weather isn’t all that easy. Still, I like this shot that I took with it:
Lots of yummy, colorful bokeh! If you were curious, the subject is the same bush I shot for this image.

Andy, rian — thanks a mint! If you want to try something like this yourself, just do a quick search on eBay for “clear crystal ball.” Mine’s 60mm in diameter, cost about $25 shipped (straight from China).

I think I’m going to need a crystal ball now, too.
