Wedding arch

This is a decorated wedding arch made of bamboo and we can put the flower and color combination of your choice for your wedding day. The bride wanted Fuchsia as her color scheme and the groom wanted the "safety orange" as his color combo. These pictures were not retouched or color corrected. They are raw and unedited and maybe only cropped.


Mom and Dad of the bridal party and yes that is the real "safety orange" color of the lei as the color in the picture is not touched.


Hey when does the reception start...?








Rings and finger shot with the bouquet on the beach.






Bride and groom - get the sunglasses out for that orange...






Walking into the sunset on the beach.






Group family shot.







Romantic beach picture.




Rain is considered "good luck" on the wedding day. There was good luck on this wedding day on the beach as it sprinkled a bit.

Photography is sometimes called painting with light

Job 38: 19 - Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,

Photon:

The words photo, photograph, photography, photographer and photon all have the same Greek root word. photon means light. Photo and photograph all have reference to paint with light and photography is the art of painting with light and the photographer is the artist that paints with light. A camera captures light and color and in essence creates an painting with light.

The photon was originally called a "light quantum" by Albert Einstein and the modern name "photon" is derived from the Greek word for light. A scientist named Lewis' had a theory was never accepted as it was contradicted by many experiments, but he coined a new name, photon, was adopted immediately by most physicists.

Visible light at times will behave like a wave but at other times it acts like a stream of high-speed, submicroscopic particles. Sir Isaac Newton was one of the first scientists to have a theory that light consists of a group of particles. Modern physicists have demonstrated that the energy in any electromagnetic field is made up of a group of discrete packets.

The term photon has the meaning of visible-light particle and this has been proposed for these energy packets. Particle-like behavior is not restricted to the visible-light portion of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. Radio waves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, X rays, and gamma rays all consist of photons, each of which contains a particular amount of energy that depends on the specific wavelength.

White light is made up of the following visible (optical) color spectrum: violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red and if you split the colors through a prism then you will see the various colors. A rainbow is essentially the same optical vision as a prism as the atmosphere allows our eyes to view the varied colors of white light as it shifts to the splendid colors we see. Red, Blue and Green are the primary colors and you can make up the full range of visible colors from these three (3) colors.

Light was essentially and originally captured on film and was printed on paper, so that you could see the vivid colors. Now the light is essentially captured on a sensor and transmitted to a monitor or printer. Photography has truly changed a great deal since I was in college and used my 35 mm camera.

In the physical universe there are a great many things which cannot be explained. Among these many things is light. Light, as far as we know, comes in different wave lengths and the size of the wavelength will determine what type of light it is. The middle wavelength lights are what gives us the seven basic colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Beside these visible lights there are the lights that cannot be seen by the human eye. These invisible lights can be grouped into two other groups the long waves and short waves.

Light's properties can seem very confusing and appears inconsistent because of the unique nature and properties of light: light has the properties of both a wave and a particle. In some situations, light's behavior is more easily explained by thinking of light as a particle. In other situations, its behavior can only be explained if light is thought of as a wave. This duality of the nature and properties of light between a particle and a wave is very difficult if not impossible to visualize. It is much easier to see light demonstrate its properties in specific situations.

Light as it behaves as a Wave:

Before the nineteenth century, the physics and scientific community was split in a controversy over the actual nature and properties of light. Around 1800, Thomas Young devised an experiment designed specifically to settle the debate over the nature of light once and for all. The basic principle behind the experiment was how light would behave when it encountered an obstacle with a hole that was smaller than the beam of light. Young set up a beam of light to shine through a slit, then the resulting light that made it through that slit was to pass through two more slits side by side. If light behaves as a group of particles, it should pass through the first slit, then through the two small slits. But, it should not spread out after passing through the slits. Because of this if light behaves as a particle in this situation, only two stripes of light should end up passing through the entire slit system.

These results were not what Young actually observed. Instead of seeing two stripes, Young saw a series of many stripes. This was definitely not consistent with the behavior of a particle. However, it was consistent with the behavior of a wave. When a wave passes through a slit, it spreads out on the other side. Also, when two waves pass over each other they can interfere with each other. These two properties of waves explain the behavior that Young observed. When the light waves pass through the slit, the waves spread out on the other side of the slit. When the two waves overlap, they interfere with each other.
