    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparency_(graphic)

    an image that is not rectangular can be filled to the required rectangle using transparent surroundings; the image can even have holes (e.g. be ring-shaped) in a run of text, a special symbol for which an image is used because it is not available in the character set, can be given a transparent background, resulting in a matching background.

  3. Camera obscura - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_obscura

    When the aperture is very wide, the sickle-form image will disappear, and the light will appear round when the hole is round, square if the hole is square, and if the shape of the opening is irregular, the light on the wall will take on this shape, provided that the hole is wide and the plane on which it is thrown is parallel to it.

[8]The first known description of pinhole photography is found in the 1856 book The Stereoscope by Scottish inventor David Brewster, including the description of the idea as "a camera without lenses, and with only a pin-hole".

  7. Pinhole (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_(optics)

    Pinholes are commonly used to spatially filter a beam (such as a laser beam), where the small pinhole acts as a low-pass filter for spatial frequencies in the image plane of the beam. [1] [2] A small pinhole can act as a lens, focusing light. This effect is used in pinhole cameras and camera obscura, and in solarigraphy.

  8. Blend modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blend_modes

    Dodge and burn change the lightness of the pictures, inspired by the dodging and burning performed in a darkroom. Dodging lightens an image, while burning darkens it. Dodging the image is the same as burning its negative (and vice versa). Dodge modes: The Screen blend mode inverts both layers, multiplies them, and then inverts that result.
