Light Theory
Without light there could be no vision or photography because it is light reflected from the world around us that makes things visible to both our eyes and the eye of the camera. The nature of light has a critical effect on the pictures you make. Light Particles
The light particle conceived by Einstien is called a photon. A photon carries energy proportional to the radiation frequency but has zero rest mass. Refraction
Refraction happens when light passes through an object , such as water or glass. Light is bent and there is a distortion. Reflection
Reflection is when something is mirrored onto a object or surface. For example if you look in a mirror, you will see a reflected image back at you. Spectrum of Colour
Newton divided the spectrum into seven named colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When it comes to landscape photography, colour has the power to both take a good image to great, or it could ruin it. |
