Refraction. Light, optics, wave transmission, energy, and oblique angles come to mind when you hear the phrase. It’s a term used in physics to describe how a wave changes direction when it comes into touch with a new medium through which it’s being transmitted.
The daily example of light refraction is glass. An object seems smaller and somewhat raised when viewed through a glass jar. Glass, water, and air are examples of refracting materials. Stars shine at night due to refraction of light.
Refraction photography is a type of photography that captures the refraction effect, which occurs when light is bent in glass, water, or another medium to distort a subject.
Photographs of refraction can be innovative, mind-bending, and just cool. Photographs of refraction can be innovative, mind-bending, and just plain cool.
Essentially, you place a subject behind a drop of water and then use your macro lens to catch the refracted subject within the drop. Through refraction, the infinite colors of light can be seen.
They’re all from the same place. There are so many different hues that blend together to provide the impression of a solid object. The bending of a light or sound wave, or the way light bends upon entering the eye to generate an image on the retina, is known as refraction.
The bending of the sun’s rays when they enter raindrops, generating a rainbow, is an example .“Iridescent” means that the reliction of color variation. Color variation in different lighting or from different angles is referred to as iridescence.
I’ve included some photographs of water droplets, refraction, and lens balls in this chapter. I felt a happiness that I couldn’t convey in words when taking these photos. The beauty of irredenta corals in the great barrier reef is undesirables.
