Photographers of all levels will love this unique gift that allows them to take their snaps to new dimensions. Glass ball photography (also called lensball photography) takes advantage of bent light, resulting in a captivating, inverted and wide-angle view of the world around us. This glass ball is particularly eyecatching when used in nature and architectural settings.
 
   Crystal balls have long been regarded as a symbol of divination and a means of scrying, by both Eastern and Western traditions. When people first began scrying, they used reflective surfaces to gain knowledge and information about the future. As crystals were discovered, particularly clear quartz, they became the perfect scrying tool, due to their transparency and symmetry. Using a crystal ball in this way is referred to as crystallomancy.
