We live in a world of optical marvels - from the commonplace, but beautiful rainbow, to the rare and eerie superior mirage. Have you ever asked yourself how a rainbow is formed, why the setting sun is red and flattened, or even why the sky at night isn't absolutely black? If so then allow David Lynch to provide you with the answers. This informative guide provides explanations to all naturally occurring optical phenomena seen with the naked eye. It offers insights into shadows, halos, water optics, mirages and a host of other spectacles. Separating myth from reality, it outlines the basic principles involved and supports them with many figures and references. Rare and spectacular photographs, many in colour, illustrate these phenomena throughout, with hints on how you can best observe and photograph them. This text provides an authoritative guide to seeing, photographing and understanding nature's optical delights.
