Refractive Index

Waking in a rumple of bedclothes With you And the morning sun

The suncatcher Spins slowly on radiator updrafts

Bending light Into broken kaleidoscopes That travel across our Mingled skin.

The Morning

If I were to write a poem in the morning, come to terms with my own capacity for moon-eyes where gentlemen sit and ponder, too, then I could say something about the light, how it writhes and coils around sleeping bodies, how it obscures my intuitive love, makes me bend my mouth into familiar shapes for kissing. I drag against it, draping and heading, only crying if it stirs and sickens as my looking breaks into time and sputters – an old expedition boat that sinks at the slightest ice; an old mentor who reveals himself to be something lewd and ragged. Anger dwells, even beneath sleep; I could never touch his edges.

The alternative physics is a physics of light. Light is composed of photons, which have no antiparticle. This means that there is no dualism in the world of light.

Learn 'Inverse Square Law of Light' in Photographer's term

I hate Math. No body likes a mathelete. So don't worry this video is not going to give a equation and try to explain the physics of light.

This video explains how the amount of light on the subject is related to the where the light source is placed. 

Example: Lets take Sunlight as an example. Because it is 1000's of miles away from us it casts equal light on all of us. But if you were to take a table lamp and try to light up two people you can quickly see that the subject closer to the light is brighter while the object farther from the light source is under exposed. This is due to the 'Inverse Square Law of Light'.

The video explains the same principle with a studio step up. Karl Taylor records the video as he changes the position of light to explain this concept.

In the is second part tutorial he gives us a bonus explaining how the same law affects the light falling on the background.

Now I think you know how to set the lighting when shooting a lot of subjects together. Let me know if you some tricks like these and please follow my blog.

It was on this day in 1900 that the physicist Max Planck published his theory of quantum mechanics, which is often considered one of the most radical scientific discoveries of the 20th century. At that time, physicists accepted the work of Isaac Newton without any criticism. They believed that the interactions between all physical objects, from atoms to planets, would be predicable and logical. But one thing that physicists couldn't quite understand was the way light worked.

Max Planck was working in a laboratory in 1900, heating up various substances and examining the color of light they emitted when they reached certain temperatures. He wanted to describe his results in mathematical terms, but no matter how hard he tried, his mathematical calculations didn't make sense. The only way he could fix the problem was to assume that light travels in little packets, like bullets, even though this seemed impossible. He published his calculations on this day in 1900, calling his theory about light "an act of desperation." He assumed that some future physicist would figure out what he had done wrong.

But five years later, Albert Einstein took Planck's theory of light seriously and wrote his first major paper exploring the idea of light traveling in packets, which he called photons. Even though he became better known for his theory of relativity, it was Einstein's work expanding on Planck's original ideas about light that won him a Nobel Prize. Einstein later said, "I use up more brain grease on quantum theory than on relativity."
