Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Proverb taken literally.

 

How to create this effect:

 

1. Wire up an LED rainbow, attach the battery.

 

2. Put all your close-up lenses onto your default lens. Configure an exposure time between 0.4 and 1.0 seconds. Enable Autofocus.

 

3. Observe your own eye's reflection in the lens, look directly at the bright square (which is the view-finder from the other side).

 

4. Let the LEDs shine into your eye to give the Autofocus enough light. Make sure there is a rainbow reflection inside your eye's reflection. Shoot!

 

5. Stare for a moment, then move the LEDs quickly.
