The techniques of photography consist of different methods and processes implemented while shooting a still or a moving photograph.
Such techniques used in Photography include:
- Bokeh
- Zoom burst
- Contre-jour
- Photographic print toning
- Photographic mosaic
- Sabatier Effect
- Stereoscopy
Bokeh is that techniques of photography, coined from the Japanese word of boke meaning “blur” in English. Bokeh is a photographic term used to refer the out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens while shooting. The aesthetic qualities of the Bokeh can be produced by varied camera lenses.
Zoom burst is another technique of photography that is attained with a zoom lens with the help of a manual zoom ring. The technique involves zooming of the picture in the camera while the shutter is open with a relatively slower shutter speed. The low light entering through the smaller aperture produces the desired effect of the image.
Photographic Print Toning is a photographic process performed on silver-based black-and-white photographic prints to change the color of the photograph.
A photographic mosaic is a picture is form of a photograph that can be divided into rectangular sections of proportionate size and each of it is replaced by another photograph of appropriate average color. Such progression is also termed as Photomosaic that is portmanteau of photo and mosaic.
Sabattier Effect or Solarisation is a phenomenon in photography which includes recording of the image on a negative or on a photographic print, found to be wholly or partially reversed in tone.
