White light split into colours by a prism
Light spectrum. White light beam is split into its spectral colours as it passes out of a glass prism. White light consists of a mixture of wavelengths of light of different colours. As the light passes between the air and the glass, the different colours bend (refract) by different amounts and are separated

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing phenomenon of white light being split into its vibrant spectrum of colors by a prism. As the white light beam passes through the glass prism, it undergoes refraction, causing each wavelength to bend at different angles and thus separating the colors that compose it. The image beautifully showcases how white light, which appears colorless to our eyes, is actually a blend of various wavelengths representing different hues. From deep reds to vivid oranges, bright yellows to soothing greens and blues, and finally rich violets - all these distinct colors emerge as they are refracted by differing amounts when transitioning between air and glass. This photograph not only highlights the scientific concept of refraction but also serves as a reminder of the incredible diversity present in something seemingly ordinary like sunlight. It underscores how physics and optics play an essential role in unraveling nature's secrets. With its striking visual appeal, this print from Science Photo Library transports us into the enchanting world where science meets art. It invites us to appreciate both the beauty inherent in natural phenomena and humanity's ability to comprehend them through rigorous scientific exploration.
