I start creating my work by replaceing traditional lighting associated with photgraphy with the lighting of tv screens. Then I continue following an image by also removing the figure as the main portion of the image , to make the figure less important. Finally, when i capture these images I use long exposures which creates a stillness of the image, except for the human figure, which creates this blurr and motion in the image. My images are a series of self portriats. I spend time setting up…

The goal of the first part of the experiment was to examine the focal lengths of various thick lenses, spherical aberration, and 1D magnification. First, we observe that the focal length does not seem to change when we move the lens closer and farther away from the box. Then, we find that the light rays converge after passing through the bi-convex and plano-convex lens and diverge after passing through the bi-concave lens. Therefore, the focal length of the bi-concave lens is negative. We also…

Photography Photographers work with people everyday they provide people memories and records of events that have happened. I have chosen this career because I love taking pictures of action and emotion of in that moment. I really enjoy witnessing people's reaction to what they look like in that moment of happiness, sadness, and other emotions. When they look at the picture they want to remember things that you don't always see. Photography is what I want to do in my life, and I’d also love…

There are so many options and ideas around photography in advertising, I love a challenge and during my research I came across the idea to photograph gemstones. Fire and brilliance are two categories under which we would find gems stones and diamonds. Optical gemology is the identifications term used to describe the characteristics of the color, transparency and luster of these breathtaking stones. The lusters the quality of light that reflects from the surface of a stone, observing the…

I. Optical Art Background/History Optical Art is a type of art that using the “illusion” of seeing something that does not exist. This art style tricks the brain into seeing things that do not exist or things that are not actually happening. There is a lot of repeating lines, shapes, and images, which sometimes appear to be moving. The term Op Art first appeared in Time Magazine in October 1964. Op Art is still a big part of the today's world and culture. Optical illusions are awesome to…

Light synthesis principles The basic idea of light waveform synthesis can be described as follows: First, the spectrum of a light waveform is decomposed into its constituent spectral components by a disperser, then, adequate modulators acting on each of this spectral components individually modifies the relative phase (or delay), the amplitude and polarization of these components before they are coherently superimposed again by a combiner to create a desired tailored waveform (Figure 2a)41.…

Introduction A lens is an object that forms images by refracting light. The images formed can be magnified, real and virtual depending on what lens used and the set-up of the lens system. There are two types of lenses, converging and diverging lenses. Converging lenses cause parallel light rays to converge to a point. Diverging lenses cause parallel light rays to diverge. Typically converging lens are thicker in the middle and diverging lenses are thinner in the middle. Lenses are used for many…

on her bed with a pipe saying that it helps with glaucoma too. But is any of this true? Yes and no. Glaucoma does not affect the pressure in your head known as intracranial pressure or ICP. What it does affect is the pressure that is put onto the optic nerve, this type of pressure is call intraocular pressure or IOP. There are several different types of glaucoma that can have different symptoms and treatments. Although this happens mostly in adults over the age of sixty, it can happen at any…

the authors Ramdas, Wolfs, Kiefte-de Jong, Hofman, and de Jong (2013) of the article "Nutrient Intake and Risk of Open-Angle Glaucoma: The Rotterdam Study", Open-Angle Glaucoma is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that leads to glaucomatous optic neuropathy and eventually, through glaucomatous visual field loss, to the loss of sight. It is also the most common cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Increased intraocular pressure, oxidative stress, and an impaired ocular blood flow are…
