Lens Ball Photographs
How does Refraction Photography Work?
Refraction happens when light passes through an object of denser mass, as the light passes through, it becomes bent. This is why Lensballs or a crystal ball works so well at refraction. They are made from high quality glass that easily lets light pass through and keeps your image sharp and in focus.
How do you Take a Picture with a Lensball?
Think of a Lensball as a magnifying glass for your photos. You will want to place the ball on a flat even surface or have yourself or a friend hold the ball in front of your camera lens. There are many photography techniques that can be applied here, but the most important thing to remember is to try to keep your horizon line even.






Remember to shoot on AV Mode, creating a shallow depth of field! Use a small f stop to accomplish this.
