In spite of their diverse applications, realistic rendering of light scattering In participating media is still very challenging due to the complexity of the variety radiative transport processes. In this study, we address several types of light models that play important role in realistic images synthesis and determine the advantages and shortcomings of each of them. Our study focus is on the interaction between the light models with particles in the air such as dust, fog, mist, haze, smoke, etc. We seek to provide information to help the reader to select the optimal and suitable light model with numerous of applications in computer graphics.
