Lesson 3: Two More Laws of Light

The class created cameras obscura to observe light traveling in a straight line.



































We also observed different ways to channel or funnel the light - a reflector, a softbox and a piece of foam core with a hole cut out.




































As we can see, each modifier channels the light a bit more--there's no way for the light to escape because it travels in a straight line.

Next we discussed angle of incidence = angle of reflection by bouncing light with different surfaces.



















In the future we will further experiment with this law when using different types of reflectors for portraits.
