Camera Optics
Light science for kids - A simple introduction to optics
A simple explanation of what light is, where it comes from, and how it behaves in our world.
Photography Snapshot: Why is Light Important?
Over the next few weeks, I'm going to share a number of lessons dealing with the essentials of photography, some of the science behind the images, and products that are likely to make your pictures easier or better. This first lesson will deal with the basic properties of light and the most basic ways to capture that light. Future lessons will talk about the exposure triangle: aperture, shutter speed and ISO.
