Temperature describes certain color characteristics of light
sources. A "blackbody" is a theoretical object which is a
perfect radiator of visible light. As the actual temperature of
this blackbody is raised, it radiates energy in the visible
range, first red, changing to orange, white, and finally bluish
white.  Color temperature describes the color of a light source
by comparing it to the color of a blackbody radiator at a given
temperature. For example, the color appearance of a halogen lamp
is similar to a blackbody radiator heated to about 3000 degrees
Kelvin. Therefore it is said that the halogen lamp has a color
temperature of 3000 degrees K- which is considered to be a warm
color temperature. The hotter the blackbody, the cooler the
color temperature! (Note: The Kelvin temperature scale uses the
same size degree as the centigrade scale, but its zero point is
at absolute zero, o
