Welcome
THANK YOU FOR DROPPING BY 🙂
We hope you will take this opportunity to look around and see how the site is developing. It’s work in progress!
We launched lightcolourvision.org at the end of May 2019 with a public event and fundraiser. Our current focus is on developing the layout, adding features and uploading resources. So, please note that we have a lot more information and images to add and more work to do on the design.

All about our libraries
NEED A QUICK INTRODUCTION TO THE SITE?
Are you looking for resources to develop your own projects and assignments?
Everything on the site is organised into an Article library, an Image library and a Reference library.
Here is a quick guide to finding your way around plus a bit of advice on how to make sense of it all!
Why explore light, colour and vision
EXPLORING LIGHT, COLOUR, VISION AND HOW TO SEE MORE?
LIGHT! Without light we see nothing! Without light, our eyes can not function at all! It is the fact that our eyes respond to light that allows us to gather the information needed to not only see colour but also to make sense of the world. Light has existed since the beginning of time and will still fill the universe long after planet Earth and its inhabitants are forgotten.
