About Slideshows


Slideshows on various lighting topics reinforce, expand, and add to the material presented in ALD3e. Some slideshows are adapted from Mr. Steffy's seminars, lectures, and presentations and others have been developed specifically for this site.


Using the drop down menu to the right, click on a title of interest. In a few minutes (some files are large), a separate window opens with a PDF presentation. While the slideshows are being populated some links may return to the ALD3e home page.
