Glossary
Composition- How the image is being places.
Focus-Focus on something in the image.
Gradient- Rate of change in density and exposure
Tone- lightness, brightness or value of a patch in a photograph: dark tones correspond to shadows, light tones correspond to bright or highlight areas.
Contrast- Of ambient light: brightness range in scene: difference between highest luminance and lowest. High contrast indicates large subject brightness range.
Aperture- An aperture is a hole or an opening through which light travels.
Blurred- Something that have been moved while taking a picture.
Depth of field- Measure of zone or distance over which any object in front of lens will appear acceptably sharp: it lies in front of and behind the plane of best focus.
Exposed- light have been reflected onto the photographic paper.
Over exposed- Too much light on the image.
Under exposed- Not enough light ben reflected onto the photographic paper.
Panoramic-Design of camera for covering a field of view that is wider than that given by any lens, usually, but not always, in the horizontal direction.
Grain- In photographic film: the individual silver (or other metal) particles that make up the image of a developed and fixed, possibly also toned, black and white film.
Texture- An image texture is a set of metrics calculated in image processing designed to quantify the perceived texture of an image. Image Texture gives us information about the spatial arrangement of color or intensities in an image or selected region of an image.
Space- Room in the image.
Foreground- Part of scene or space around object that appears closest to camera.
Background-Part or element of scene that is behind -- i.e. more distant from the observer than -- the foreground. It usually appears above the foreground in the image.
Shutter- Device which controls the time of exposure of a light-sensitive material or detector.
Cropping- Refers to the removal of the outer parts of an image to improve framing, accentuate subject matter or change aspect ratio. Depending on the application, this may be performed on a physical photograph, artwork or film footage, or achieved digitally using image editing software. The term is common to the film, broadcasting, photographic, graphic design and printing industries.
Resolution- For input devices e.g. cameras, scanners: measure of the ability of a system to reproduce details present in a subject so that they are in the image.
Saturation- Subjective experience of vividness or richness of colour.
Focus-Focus on something in the image.
Gradient- Rate of change in density and exposure
Tone- lightness, brightness or value of a patch in a photograph: dark tones correspond to shadows, light tones correspond to bright or highlight areas.
