I picked up a copy of the Color of Nature this summer at a used bookstore. In flipping through the book, I enjoyed the general concept and principles being introduced. The book is now on my desk at work and I need actually read it. Perhaps it will help me understand, scientifically, why the light was so gorgeous yesterday.

The Color of Nature, By Pat Murphy and Paul Doherty, featuring photography by William Neill

Have you ever wondered why water sometimes appears blue and sometimes green? Why lobsters change color when you cook them? Why the sky is blue, the grass green, and why the robin has a red breast? A glance at any natural scene provides many examples of the mysteries of colors. InThe Color of Nature, stunning, full-color photographs and lively text encourage readers of all ages to look at the world in a new way and to understand the fascinating science behind the beauty. http://www.exploratorium.edu/books/color_of_nature.html
