A video posted a few days ago caught my interest because it displayed eyeshine which can be rather creepy in the dark. I set out to duplicate this and I had a lot of issues. I finally figured out the magic balance to make it work right and tonight I plan on using the method on my cages before I feed them. Hungry gliders are attentive gliders.
So I challenge you to try to capture some neat Eye Shine
video or stills.
The trick is to be at a distance, not close, with a bright point source light. You can zoom in for effect, but you have to be a distance away for the light to align properly to reflect back like it does.
Phone cameras with video "flash" lamp work pretty well actually. I am going to try with my good camera now that I have a method.
