    The streetlight effect, or the drunkard's search principle, is a type of observational bias that occurs when people only search for something where it is easiest to look. [1] Both names refer to a well-known joke: A policeman sees a drunk man searching for something under a streetlight and asks what the drunk has lost.

  3. Day for night - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_for_night

    With color film or video, a graduated neutral-density filter can achieve a similar effect, as can a polarizing filter. Using either of these filters can limit camera movement during a shot, as the axis of a graduated filter must match the horizon, and the effect of the polarizing filter changes as the axis of the camera lens moves relative to ...

  4. Reciprocity (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocity_(photography)

    In photography, reciprocity refers to the relationship whereby the total light energy – proportional to the total exposure, the product of the light intensity and exposure time, controlled by aperture and shutter speed, respectively – determines the effect of the light on the film. That is, an increase of brightness by a certain factor is ...

In the 1960s and entering the next decade, Barthes's analysis of photography develops more detail and insight through a structuralist approach; the treatment of photography in Mythologies is by comparison tangential and simple. There is still in this ...

  8. Flashing (cinematography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashing_(cinematography)

    The effect is produced by adding a small and even level of exposure to the entire image. Since exposure levels increase logarithmically, this tiny level of additional exposure has no practical effect on an image's mid-tones or highlights, while it shifts the darker areas of the image into the practical sensitivity range, thus allowing the darker areas of the image to show visual detail rather ...

  9. Lo-fi photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lo-fi_photography

    This overexposed film photograph featuring multiple exposures and visible sprocket holes is an example of a lo-fi photograph. Lo-fi photography uses film or digital photography techniques to create more of a soft, unusual look to photos compared to the crisp and high definition photographs that standard photography aims to provide.
