So remember my prior post about amateur photographers loving gels? So I stole a technique from Daniel Norton about taking red, blue, and yellow light, separating them by some small distance and height, then shooting. Together they make a normally exposed visible light R+Y+B=Clear but since the light sources are slightly transposed from each other, you get cool shadows of the light not blocked when you hold your hands up or throw something in front of the light sources.
