Step 1: Cut Down the Frisbee
First take the frisbee and break it, so that you have a flat area to work with, rather than having to cut through the ridge of the frisbee. You can break the frisbee simply by standing on it or putting a chair leg over it and sitting on it.
You do not have to break the frisbee to take these pictures, cutting it down just makes it easier to carry around
Cut the frisbee down into a shape like in the first picture. You can change the shape however you want, but it should fully cover the lens and have an extra part that you can hold without covering the lens.

Step 2: Camera Settings
The camera settings are pretty specific, and if the camera is not on these settings then the picture will not work (as well at least.)
To manipulate all these setting, put the camera on macro mode.
Iso- You can put the iso as low if you want because it is on flash (unless you want the picture to be grainy.)
Macro- Although the pictues look the best when taken up close, make sure not to put the camera on macro or the picture will be mostly red.
Exposure- Use as high of an exposure as possible.
Flash- Full power

Step 3: Cover the Flash and Take the Picture
Hold your new frisbee flash cover by the tab and cover the flash. Take whatever picture your heart desires.
