The Polarization and Polaroid Filter Gallery features photos that illustrate the concepts associated with light polarization and the use of Polaroid filters to reduce glare, to brighten skies, and to analyze the stress patterns in thermo molded plastics. This gallery coordinates with the Polarization page of Lesson 1 of the Light Waves and Color chapter of The Physics Classroom Tutorial.

The Color Gallery features photos of colored pencils and chalk, light spectra, autumn colors, scanning electron micrographs of the retina, and more. Photos and accompanying descriptions tell the fascinating story of how color and color vision is achieved. This gallery coordinates with Lesson 2 of the Light Waves and Color chapter of The Physics Classroom Tutorial.

The Light Interference Gallery features Bphotos of diffraction patterns, two point source interference patterns and thin film interference patterns. Photos and accompanying descriptions focus on the phenomenon of light interference and the remarkable results that it produces. This gallery coordinates mostly with Lesson 3 of the Light Waves and Color chapter of The Physics Classroom Tutorial.
