This would indicate to me that, upon the opening of the shutter, there would might be a flood of photons that minutes before that had been biding their time having tea with the queen filter mum. Or perhaps if the queen wasn't available than probably some gin soaked photons stumbling onto the film from a momentary party with the filter lads. In either case. We would be photographing remnant realities of the not so distant past. Is this to say that if we really want to make a photograph of the present, we must eschew the use of filters? r Chris wrote: > > I think there is a delay that could be minutes from the time of absorption > to the time of re-emission as a statistical random manner in time and > direction, thus preventing constructive interference to make a forward beam > in the case of light absorbed by pigment. > > Chris.
