-“iridescence” is the ‘phenomenon’ of certain ‘surfaces’ that appear to ‘change color’ as the *’angle’ of ‘view’* or the *’angle’ of ‘illumination’* changes-
.
[examples of ‘iridescence’ include…]
‘soap bubbles’
‘butterfly wings’
‘sea shells’
‘certain minerals’
.
.
(it is often created by ‘structural coloration’)
.
*’structured coloration’* –>
‘micro-structures’ that interfere with ‘light’
