Assignment 3 - Three Laws of Light

In one photograph, using one light source, clearly demonstrate the 3 laws of light:

• Light Travels in a Straight Line
• Angle of Incidence = the Angle of Reflection
• Inverse Square Law

Materials: 

• Light bulb
• Small mirror
• 2 black cards
• One large piece of mat board with a hole cut for the light bulb
• Clamps and stands to hold things up

The subject is the light.

• Include the lamp/light source in you photograph
• Think of it as more of a physics project than a photograph.
• Use a dodging tool to prevent the light from flaring the lens.
• Try not to show light stands, clamps, etc.

Finished result should look something like this:

As with our last assignment, make one photo as a group but please each post that photo on your own blog.
