Thank you. The color is actually reflected from the lens front elements (enhanced a bit in PS) and I believe the color comes from the coating that the manufacturers put on the front lens elements for various reasons like chromatic aberration etc. You need to reflect light at different angles to see it, so I did a 13 second exposure as I moved a softbox with a continuous led at different angles to get the colored reflections.
