Is there a good video or animation of what this looks like ? I've seen a bunch of text descriptions but I'm curious how this actually appears.

- marshray 5y agoIIRC, Werner Herzog's Cave of Forgotten Dreams (2010) has some scenes where the cave walls are illuminated by flickering light.

- sandworm101 5y agoTry drawing a picture of a forest on a moonless night. It is very difficult to portray how we see things when our eyes are at the limits of their abilities. For instance, our peripheral vision can see better in dim light than our focused vision, causing us to see things in the corner of our eye that disappear when we look strait at them. Try simulating that effect in a photograph. Perception of color also changes over time. If you sit in a cave with a fire (mostly red/yellow) after several hours you will start seeing color differently. Something that looks yellow on a computer screen (lots of blue/green) may be perceived as white after hours bathed in the red/yellow of firelight. These are areas where painters are better than photographers. Nobody can make a good photograph of a dark forest and all the effects that entails. But a painter with a brush can communicate through artistic trickery.
