Scratched Glasses Lenses

I was playing around with focusing light through my glasses and realised how scratched and dirty they are. The marks remind me of the images of the contacts through the microscope. I find these such beautiful and interesting images because they're really mysterious - I'm certain I could never guess what they were if I didn't know. The way the light is warped to make different colours is mesmerising. I feel this would make a cool video piece if I were to record it properly, although I'm not really sure what it would say. I suppose it is turning something bad - imperfections - into something beautiful and therefore changing its value. Although I think maybe, along with their visual similarities, perhaps these images are also like the microscope ones in that they don't allow much for the imagination to go off because they are so obscure. They don't have any strong associations that I can think would be particularly poetic or significant.
