    I located a piece of ice, at the border of a frozen lake, that was breaking up the sunlight into different wavelengths in a similar fashion to that of a prism. I used a polarizer on the lens to maximize this effect and also carefully adjusted my position for optimum optics. I focused on a small area and my imagination took me to places among the stars.
