  6. Transparent vs. Translucent

  7. The Color of Objects • The color of an object depends on the material of the object and the color of light striking it. • OPAQUE OBJECTS: they are the color of the light they REFLECT. • TRANSPARENT & TRANSLUCENT OBJECTS: they are the color of light they TRANSMIT.

  8. OPAQUE OBJECTS – REFLECT!! Bananas are yellow because they REFLECT yellow light! Leaves are green because the chlorophyll in leaves reflect green light and absorb the other colors.

  9. TRANSPARENT & TRANSLUCENT - TRANSMIT Filter appears green because it TRANSMITS only green light.

  14. Mixing Colors of PIGMENTS • Inks, dyes and paints contain PIGMENTS. • The primary colors of pigments are: MAGENTA, YELLOW and CYAN When pigments are added together, Fewer colors of light are reflected (more are absorbed). For this reason, it is called SUBTRACTIVE.
