This book provides the reader with an understanding of what color is, where color comes from, and how color can be used correctly in many different applications. The authors first treat the physics of light and its interaction with matter at the atomic level, so that the origins of color can be appreciated. The intimate relationship between energy levels, orbital states, and electromagnetic waves helps to explain why diamonds shimmer, rubies are red, and the feathers of the Blue Jay are blue. Then, color theory is explained from its origin to the current state of the art, including image capture and display as well as the practical use of color in disciplines such as computer graphics, computer vision, photography, and film.
After the storm of the century passes, survivors along the coast usually have a tale to tell; but Seaside's elite aren't talking. Christy and her misfit gang stumble upon the reason why as a sinister supernatural sea legend involving marauding fiendish mermen unfolds around them. Local author Beatrice LaRoche and her illustrator ol' Mr. Gepford seem to have an authoritative knowledge of the esoteric subject the kids are digging into, but the odd harpoon marks on their arms put them in league with the "Harpies" group the children distrust. Unless the gang can convince the right folks that the "time of reckoning" forewarned by the eccentric old artist exists outside his imagination, their community could go under without a fight. Ved-ava's Curse is a suspense/adventure set in Seaside and throughout Clatsop County to include Fort Stevens. The fiction novel, for young adults and older, is marked with humor, conspiracy, and adventure challenging each of us to examine our own values along with the limits of our imagination in day to day life.
When an angel of death arrives to collect his charge, he quickly learns that things are seldom as they first appear in matters of the human heart. His assignment reveals that a man's last hours are rarely a reflection of the way he's lived his entire life. A visit to death row during Last Rites, as seen through heavenly eyes, shows much more than a convict, a guard, and a priest. It shows how a guard's journey to find his faith challenges religious dogma and social labeling while displaying the human soul's incredible capacity for change. Your own beliefs will be tested as con-victs, their guard, and a priest, each with their own tortured past, faces reconciling forgiveness in Trespassing on Holy Ground.
