  2. Straight photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight_photography

    Although taken by some to mean lack of manipulation, straight photographers in fact applied many common darkroom techniques to enhance the appearance of their prints. Rather than factual accuracy, the term came to imply a specific aesthetic typified by higher contrast and rich tonality, sharp focus, aversion to cropping , and a Modernism ...

  3. Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)

    Linear or point-projection perspective works by putting an imaginary flat plane that is close to an object under observation and directly facing an observer's eyes (i.e., the observer is on a normal, or perpendicular line to the plane). Then draw straight lines from every point in the object to the observer.

  4. Photographic composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_composition

    Photographic composition techniques are used to set up the elements of a picture. These are the techniques which resembles the way we humans normally see a view Some of the main techniques that are: Simplicity (photography) Symmetrical balance; Asymmetrical balance; Radial balance; Rule of thirds; Leading lines [1] Golden ratio; Framing ...

  5. Rectilinear lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectilinear_lens

    While this example has been rectilinear-corrected by software, high quality wide-angle lenses are built with optical rectilinear correction. In photography, a rectilinear lens is a photographic lens that yields images where straight features, such as the edges of walls of buildings, appear with straight lines, as opposed to being curved.

  6. Composition (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_(visual_arts)

    Different techniques can be used to create physical texture, which allows qualities of visual art to be seen and felt. This can include surfaces such as metal, sand, and wood. Optical texture is when the illusion of physical texture is created. Photography, paintings, and drawings use visual texture to create a more realistic appearance. [5]

  7. Rule of thirds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_thirds

    The photograph demonstrates the application of the rule of thirds. The horizon in the photograph is on the horizontal line dividing the lower third of the photo from the upper two-thirds. The tree is at the intersection of two lines, sometimes called a power point [1] or a crash point. [2]

  8. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    A photo demonstrating a vanishing point at the end of the railroad. A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective rendering where the two-dimensional perspective projections of mutually parallel lines in three-dimensional space appear to converge.

  9. Curvilinear perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_perspective

    Curvilinear barrel distortion Curvilinear pincushion distortion. Curvilinear perspective, also five-point perspective, is a graphical projection used to draw 3D objects on 2D surfaces, for which (straight) lines on the 3D object are projected to curves on the 2D surface that are typically not straight (hence the qualifier "curvilinear" [citation needed]).
