  2. Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

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

    Linear or point-projection perspective (from Latin perspicere 'to see through') is one of two types of graphical projection perspective in the graphic arts; the other is parallel projection. [ citation needed ] [ dubious – discuss ] Linear perspective is an approximate representation, generally on a flat surface, of an image as it is seen by ...

  3. Perspectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspectivity

    Let P n−m−1 be an (n − m − 1)-dimensional subspace of R n with no points in common with either S m or T m. For each point X of S m, the space L spanned by X and P n-m-1 meets T m in a point Y = f P (X). This correspondence f P is also called a perspectivity. [6] The central perspectivity described above is the case with n = 2 and m = 1.

  4. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    In 5-point perspective the vanishing points are mapped into a circle with 4 vanishing points at the cardinal headings N, W, S, E and one at the circle's origin. A reverse perspective is a drawing with vanishing points that are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are "in front of" the painting.

  5. Landscape photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landscape_photography

    Landscape photography (often shortened to landscape photos) shows the spaces within the world, sometimes vast and unending, but other times microscopic. Landscape photographs typically capture the presence of nature but can also focus on human-made features or disturbances of landscapes.

  6. Picture plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_plane

    In painting, photography, graphical perspective and descriptive geometry, a picture plane is an image plane located between the "eye point" (or oculus) and the object being viewed and is usually coextensive to the material surface of the work.

  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. Reverse perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_perspective

    Reverse perspective, also called inverse perspective, [1] inverted perspective, [2] divergent perspective, [3] [4] or Byzantine perspective, [5] is a form of perspective drawing where the objects depicted in a scene are placed between the projective point and the viewing plane.

  9. Perspective (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    If each of the perspective figures consists of all the points on a line (a range) then transformation of the points of one range to the other is called a central perspectivity. A dual transformation, taking all the lines through a point (a pencil) to another pencil by means of an axis of perspectivity is called an axial perspectivity. [2]
