+/**
+ * Creates an image light with the given image.
+ *
+ * The image light simulates light from all the directions.
+ * This is done by using the image as a texture for an infinitely
+ * large sphere light. This sphere contains
+ * or encapsulates the whole scene/drawing.
+ * It will have different effect for varying shininess of the
+ * object in the drawing.
+ * Under the hood it is mainly doing 2 types of calculations,
+ * the first one is creating an irradiance map the
+ * environment map of the input image.
+ * The second one is managing reflections based on the shininess
+ * or roughness of the material used in the scene.
+ *
+ * Note: The image's diffuse light will be affected by fill()
+ * and the specular reflections will be affected by specularMaterial()
+ * and shininess().
+ *
+ * @method imageLight
+ * @param  {p5.image}    img  image for the background

+ *   background(220);
+ *   imageMode(CENTER);
+ *   push();
+ *   translate(0, 0, -200);
