 Taken using a Canon EOS 350D and a 17mm Fisheye-Takumar Pentax Lens.

I set this up by hanging a CD from the celing and spinning it rapidly whilst shining a bright white LED torch from behind it to create the reflection and diffraction. This took a fair few trys to get the right effect, which then had to cropped and adjusted slightly to produce what you see...

The composition is lacking any point of interest and is overall just not appealing to me. The image is very grainy and poorly exposed
