Every sunset, colorful flower, and familiar face begins with light reaching our eyes.
Yet seeing involves much more than simply receiving light.
Photons interact with molecules inside retinal cells. Those interactions initiate biochemical reactions that eventually contribute to visual perception.
Quantum physics explains the first energy exchange. Biology and neuroscience explain much of what follows.
Understanding these processes raises an interesting question about everyday awareness.
Does knowing how something works increase your appreciation of it?

We often assume that our eyes simply record the world around us.
In reality, the retina and brain process information before we experience a visual scene.
Our experience of color depends on light, photoreceptors, and neural processing.
How might this knowledge influence the way we interpret what we see?
