All the colors through a wine glass - refracting light

Well, we looked far into that wine glass before - Let us dive in another time. Red, White, and green for this time. Refractography is super simple to give you many images one after another. Last time I was hesitant to share so many of it. (see the making off video down below)

The principle stays the same: The camera is all open without even a lens and a refraction object is in front of the camera. One, two, or even 3 light sources are positioned to shed the refractions onto the sensor of the camera.

With some small twists to the side, the shapes and the patterns change.

Pro Tip:

Make sure your light sources are as small as possible. Just tape your light source and pinch a hole into the tape. Good enough. See here, this is how I did it.

The second option like in the 'making of video', takes your light source far away. I had the camera in the living room and the light in the kitchen. That was an easy 10-12m distance.

Here is how:

I really tried to keep it super short and simple.

Apart from that? Got any questions?
I am super happy to explain it in more detail if needed.
