So, I knew there would be an effect, but wasn't sure how well it would reproduce in a photo until I took some shots.

Balanced on top of that is a metallic-mesh bin that collects the paper-strips from my shredder. The photo was taken looking down at the box from an angle, through the mesh. The 'columns' and 'lead' are both light-artifacts and not part of the image. The 'lead' is light reflecting along the edge of the box. The 'columns' (I can see what you are referring to) are purely an artifact of how the light interacts with the mesh patterns (I think it's called an 'interference pattern').MitchyLRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11423634734890422795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2754825352501477029.post-35283896698668127122013-10-03T18:21:20.186+01:002013-10-03T18:21:20.186+01:00Hi Jacob!!

Which means, yeah I see the camera, but I see other stuff too. I didn't need to move back, being very very short sighted, I just took my glasses off.
