what determines the brightness of an object?
If you have a light on a dimmer switch and you turn it down, the room becomes darker.
Photons are still being emitted by the light, so what causes the darkness? Is it a lack of photons, or the amplitude of the light wave, or something like that that determines the brightness and illumination of the light emitting object's surroundings?
