The Change of Reality Depending on Lighting

This thesis discusses the changes in perceived reality that occur depending on the specific lighting of a given place. These photographic principles are demonstrated and described through the examples of six authors (Léonard Misonne, Emila Medková, Bernd a Hilla Becherovi, Magdalena Jetelová, Jan Pohribný a Jiří Šigut). The main theme of these photographers is the landscape or cityscape in the context of natural daylight. This thesis is also concerned with the socio-cultural perception of light, its spiritual aspects and it considers physical categories as well. Part of this work also constitutes a dictionary of terms. The dictionary tries to describe the meaning of some terms that are connected to the theme of light
