    Default Office Rainbows

    Here are some of what I call Wesbows, in the office. Produced by a grating from Ed Wesly of Chicago, IL, they really light up a room. There's another strong order on the floor. Who wouldn't like a bit of residential spectra?

    Default Great grating

    Ive got a 4 x 4 Jarrel-Ash interferometer grating that's no longer scientifically usable but serves double duty as a rainbow maker in my studio window. 1180 grooves per mm and blazed at 5000A.
    Will there be three phase!!!!

    The grating Ed made is about 8.5x11", and is a transmission cross grating. I stuck it in the corner of the window. He makes much more complex gratings as well.

    Don't know. He's a lurker here, I'd recommend sending him a PM. He's also here: http://edweslystudio.com/WelcomeFrameset.html
