Shimmering, curved concentrations of light reflected or refracted by a curved surface or fluid, casting organic, web-like grids of illumination.
Caustics are the envelope of light rays reflected or refracted by a curved surface or object, creating bright, wavy patterns. They are highly dynamic, conveying fluidity, wetness, or glass-like qualities.
Where to apply: Underwater scenes, glass objects, liquid surfaces, luxury product shots, and abstract textures to add organic movement and realism.
