Thru the Crystal Ball - a photo on Flickriver

            I haven't used my crystal ball much because it's really heavy !  Holding it in an outstretched arm while balancing the heavy camera one-handed and focusing is pretty tricky. I should try to figure out  how to mount the crystal ball on a tripod or stand of some sort. This is the fruit basket in my kitchen on Sunday morning with the beautiful early morning light streaming in - a rare morning with no fog.

Shot at F2.8 to get that cool bokeh (and because it was indoors without a tripod).

By the way, if you want to invest in your own crystal ball, you can buy them on Amazon.
