POPSExuberance of light - amazing "These are refraction patterns or 'caustics' formed by a light beam passing through a shaped and textured plastic form. The pattern is captured directly on to 35mm film by removing the camera lens and putting the transparent object in its place. The processed film is digitally scanned for uploading. Please note these are not computer generated images but a true analogue of the way light is refracted by the objects I create" Reciprocity's amazing photostream.

POPSWas Dr. Ivins a "mad scientist"? This case presents a great many mysteries which may never be solved. The most troubling revelation, however, had nothing to do with Dr. Ivins.
