So I saw Scott's blog a ways back and decided to buy a crystal ball and play around with it last summer. ; It was a lot of fun, especially when I would ask a stranger to hold it up for a shot. ; I had the help of my wife and daughter for these four shots. ; The one of Cinderella Castle you can see that the ball when held up to the sun can act much like a magnifying glass and my daughter's thumb was getting fried!

Thanks guys. ; Yep, I played around with turning them, but then the hand appeared to be more weird. ; I may try it again and be closer to the icons so that they will appear a little larger, except maybe Spaceship Earth.
 
Or have the holder hold the sphere upside down and rotate photo 180 degrees. ; Although you would run the risk of dropping the sphere...

These are great! I wonder if you could look thru 2 balls to turn the image upright?

Thanks Erich! ; Do you think that Disney would frown upon the idea of shooting through "two balls?"

I realized that I could just have the holder rotate their hand some and then it would not look too weird if I flipped it.
