Lens Ball Photography is a form of abstract photography. A lens ball is a perfect clear spear of glass that reflects everything, upside down. I started photographing the lens ball on colorful fabric. Later, incorporating a mirror resulted in a symmetrical reflection of the refracted striped ball. I next experiment with the lens ball on an iPad, then an iPad behind the lens ball reflected into a mirror, then a lens ball with other shapes and then….

I am always looking for interesting ways to reflect behind or under with the lens ball.
