Thought I'd give this a go. Here's one of the better ones made with an LED "reading" light.

asheeshkchopra,
There are many, many posters on this thread. Use the 'Quote' button when you ask a question so we'll know who you are asking. Here's a 'snapshot' of the reading light I used. I've also used standard so-called maglights - the small ones that take a single AA battery.

Great "How I took It". Thanks, Ryan.
I went ahead and tried it. Here are some of the results. I used a small dual led headlamp that has red light as well. They didn't turn out as clean as the OP but I like them.
