This is the third volume in a three-part series that uses art photography as a point of departure for learning about physics, while also using physics to ask fundamental questions about the nature of photography as an art. This volume focuses on the physics and chemistry of photographic light-sensitive materials, as well as the human retina. It also considers the rudimentary nature of digital photography and its relationship to the analog photography that preceded it.
