One phenomenon that phascinates me -

When you look at a bright point light - a street lamp, or the glare of the sun
on a clean car, you see all kinds of colorful rays induced by diffraction and
refraction in the eyelashes, the edge of the eyelid and nonuniformity in the
cornea.   

Maybe someday we'll be writing

camera {
    location <...>
    look_at  <...>
    eyelashes on
    eyelid  squint 0.1
}

....???
