Hello. The other forum where it is encouraged to post our pics is giving permission errors saying I can not start a thread in it. But I'll post some pics here I took until that has the permissions fixed up so forum members can post there. I hope you and other members enjoy them. Some other images I have had a hard time with getting pictures of. Ill take some images of the magnet setups and ones of those setups in the ferrocell if anyone can give any pointers. The Cube that came with the ferrocell: A hard drive magnet from a mainframe. And my favorite top (pole) down view on a set of rings: ..... And now sunflowers and pinecone patterns make sense....

Great to see some different field configurations, 777 Thanks for being the first to post any pix (other than me) on the forum. I'll check into the permissions for folder access and make sure they allow members to comment & add pix. Here's a recent post I made to enhance your images quality: ferrocell.freeforums.net/thread/33/brighter-clearer-images-using-blackRemove the bottom plate off your light ring and place the ring over a 'black hole'...

Thanks for the tip about the "black hole". Ive just cut a hole in a tall box that a standup electric heater came in and now waiting for the paint to dry inside. I have noticed blue light doesn't show as much. Ill redo the images once the box is done to compare. I have those little things there that I can place another ring magnet attached to a ball bearing in the center of them and it spins. I was always curious to see the fields at work dealing with the ring of magnets. I cant for the life of me get an image of their field to show up but will try with the "black hole". In the above images I have the magnets inside the light ring with the bottom off and using a black leather notebook for the floor. Using that Ive had best luck raising the magnets inside on plastic washers until I have a gap of a mm or so from the ferrocell on the inside.

The piece of pipe with a ring of magnets will work if you can get the magnets to touch (or come very close) to the cell surface.
Yes, we get higher contrast and sharper images with a 'black hole'. And the blue's come through much better. Really great pix this time around!

( It sort of looks like a solar eclipse ) The PVC pipe ring set up in the above post but with the ferrocell directly on top of the pipe end that has the magnets a fixed. They are almost touching the ferrocell. I have also tried placing that end on top of the ferrocell as well and cant get anything in the images. I'm stumped.

Sorry I didnt respond sooner, I missed your comment.
Looks like you are imaging a magnetic pole in that last pix (eclipse). The combination of your magnets are producing one strong pole. Can you image just one magnet and see what you get?
