Photography Terms Final
Across
- 2. A principle of design in which all the individual parts of a composition come together and support each other to create one cohesive composition.
- 4. An increment of exposure that either doubles or halves the amount of light in an exposure.
- 6. A principle of design that occurs when different qualities of the elements of art and principle of design are included in one image.
- 7. A lightproof box with a device, either a pinhole or a lens, that focuses light from an object or scene into an image onto light-sensitive material, either film or a digital-imaging sensor, to record an image.
- 8. A principle of design created by the organized repetition, alteration, or progression of art elements like color, value, shape, and line.
- 10. The sharpness and fine detail in an image.
- 12. An element of art that refers to the tactile or visual quality of a surface in an image that can be emphasized by dramatic lighting.
- 14. The device on a camera that shows the area of the subject or scene that will be included in a photograph.
- 16. Moving the camera during an exposure to follow a moving subject.
- 19. An element of art that refers to a point moving in space. It begins in one place and ends in another.
- 20. A numerical representation of the diameter of a lens's aperture.
- 21. An element of art that refers to the light or dark tones of colors or to the neutral tones in an image.
- 22. An element of art with three properties: hue, value, and intensity.
- 23. A principle of design that refers to how elements are arranged to achieve stability. There are three kinds: symmetrical, asymmetrical and radial.
- 24. A procedure that eliminates parts of an image or print to improve or change its composition. This can be done by physically trimming the finished print.
- 26. A portrait of a photographer taken by that photographer.
- 28. The arrangement of district parts or elements to form a unified whole. Also, the arrangement and relationship of the elements of art and principles of design in an image.
- 30. To capture the action or a moving subject in a photograph without blurring.
- 32. A principle of design that uses value, shape, size, position, or color to add importance to an object or subject in an image.
Down
- 1. The range of values, from light to dark, of the colors or shades of gray in an image.
- 3. The measure of the brilliance or purity of a color.
- 5. A very small, round hole that can focus light into an image.
- 9. The name of a color, such as green, blue, or yellow, that is determined by its position in the light spectrum.
- 11. The position or location form which a photograph is taken.
- 12. A transparent, positive color image in which the tones or values match those of the original subject.
- 13. Short for "picture element," a pixel is the smallest imaging unit in an imaging sensor or a digital image. It is usually square or rectangular in shape.
- 15. A principle of design that refers to real or implied motion in a image, or how the viewer's eye travels through the composition of an image.
- 16. Combining two or more images to create a wider horizontal or vertical view than is possible with one photograph.
- 17. The unfocused parts of an image that can be caused by the subject being out of the depth of field, subject movement, or camera movement.
- 18. An element of art that occurs when a line meets itself. They can be straight lines, angles, circles, squares, rectangles, polygons, flowing curves and random, irregular outlines.
- 25. A principle of design that is achieved by the repetition of any of the elements of art in a composition.
- 27. A principle of design that refers to the relationship between the sizes of objects or components in an image.
- 29. The purity, brightness, or saturation of a color, also called a colors chroma.
- 30. A three-dimensional shape.
- 31. The hole or opening inside a lens that determines the amount of light passing through the lens.
- 33. A mechanism, inside either the lens or the camera body, that opens and closes allowing light to hit the film or digital-imaging sensor.
- 34. An element of art that indicates area in an image and can be positive or negative.
