Lensing, caustics & chromatic aberration C016 / 6365
Lensing, caustics and chromatic aberation of sunlight on water in a swimming pool. The rippled surface of the water acts like many small lenses, focussing light onto tiles (caustics), distorting their shape and adding coloured fringes (chromatic aberation). In optics, a caustic or caustic network is the envelope of light rays reflected or refracted by a curved surface or object, or the projection of that envelope of rays on another surface. These curved surfaces act like assymetric lenses focussing the light rays into constantly changing patterns

EDITORS COMMENTS
This mesmerizing print captures the captivating beauty of lensing, caustics, and chromatic aberration in a unique way. The image showcases sunlight gracefully dancing on the rippled surface of water in a swimming pool, creating an enchanting spectacle. As if by magic, the ripples act as countless small lenses that focus light onto tiles beneath them, resulting in stunning caustics - distorted shapes with vibrant colored fringes. In the field of optics, a caustic or caustic network refers to the envelope formed by light rays reflected or refracted by curved surfaces or objects. This particular photograph displays how these asymmetrical lenses formed by curved surfaces continuously transform and project ever-changing patterns onto their surroundings. The play between sunrays and water creates an optical wonderland where blue hues blend harmoniously with radiant colors. The distortion caused by this phenomenon adds an artistic touch to each tile's shape while simultaneously projecting vividly colored fringes around them. Photographer David Parker skillfully captured this extraordinary moment from Science Photo Library's vast collection. His expertise allows us to appreciate the intricate interplay between light and water through his lensing technique. This awe-inspiring image serves as a reminder of nature's ability to create breathtaking visual spectacles right before our eyes – even within something as ordinary as a swimming pool.
