Westbrook further bemoans the Southern writers' creation of an unreal image of their homeland, which is too readily assimilated by both foreign readers and visiting Yankees: `` Our northerner is suspicious of all this crass evidence ( of urbanization ) presented to his senses.

Life is further characterized, in antithesis to Piepsam, as animal: the image of a dog, which appears at several places, is first given as the criterion of amiable, irrelevant interest aroused by life considered simply as a spectacle: a dog in a wagon is `` admirable '', `` a pleasure to contemplate '' ; ;

By `` image '' is meant not only a visual presentation, but also remembered sensations of any of the five senses plus the feelings which are immediately conjoined therewith.

When this linear draft is completed, I dust it down to a faint image.

Consider a simple, closed, plane curve C which is a real-analytic image of the unit circle, and which is given by Af.

The line Af is the image of L.

Moreover, from the definitive transformation of intercepts on the generators of Af, it is clear that the only points of Q at which a line can meet its image are the points of Aj.

The most obvious of these is the quadratic complex of tangents to Q, each line of which is transformed into the entire pencil of lines tangent to Q at the image of the point of tangency of the given line.

It is interesting that a 1: 1 correspondence can be established between the lines of two such pencils, so that in a sense a unique image can actually be assigned to each tangent.

Hence, thought of as a line in a particular plane **yp, any tangent to Q has a unique image and moreover this image is the same for all planes through L.

It is often useful to render image elements in separate passes, and then combine the resulting multiple 2D images into a single, final image in a process called compositing.

Commercial advertisers often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through " branding ," which involves the repetition of an image or product name in an effort to associate certain qualities with the brand in the minds of consumers.

Burnt-in timecode ( often abbreviated to BITC by analogy to VITC ) is a human-readable on-screen version of the timecode information for a piece of material superimposed on a video image.

Therefore, four loose families of more-efficient light transport modelling techniques have emerged: rasterization, including scanline rendering, geometrically projects objects in the scene to an image plane, without advanced optical effects ; ray casting considers the scene as observed from a specific point-of-view, calculating the observed image based only on geometry and very basic optical laws of reflection intensity, and perhaps using Monte Carlo techniques to reduce artifacts ; and ray tracing is similar to ray casting, but employs more advanced optical simulation, and usually uses Monte Carlo techniques to obtain more realistic results at a speed that is often orders of magnitude slower.

For these reasons, rasterization is usually the approach of choice when interactive rendering is required ; however, the pixel-by-pixel approach can often produce higher-quality images and is more versatile because it does not depend on as many assumptions about the image as rasterization.

In 2D computer animation, moving objects are often referred to as “ sprites .” A sprite is an image that has a location associated with it.

Newer monitors are able to display a different image for each eye, often with the help of special glasses, giving the perception of depth.

In graphic arts ( 2D image making that ranges from photography to illustration ) the distinction is often made between fine art and commercial art, based on the context within which the work is produced and how it is traded.

Instead of signing a log book, the finder is often required to capture their image from the webcam for verification of the find.

Gel electrophoresis research often takes advantage of software-based image analysis tools, such as ImageJ.

This is often not an ideal solution for GIF images, both because the loss of spatial resolution typically makes an image look fuzzy on the screen, and because the dithering patterns often interfere with the compressibility of the image data, working against GIF's main purpose.

Whilst the terms are often used interchangeably, branding is more strictly related to the identifying mark or trade name for a product or service, whereas corporate identity can have a broader meaning relating to the structure and ethos of a company, as well as to the company's external image.

Runes often refer to placing the image on an object or person to empower it, whereas the magic in a glyph lies dormant and is only triggered when the glyph is read or approached.

For many medieval writers, the image of the Garden of Eden also creates a location for human love and sexuality, often associated with the classic and medieval trope of the locus amoenus.

The image of these charismatic figures, often wandering among the people, became shaped by the Kabbalistic legend of the Lamed Vav Tzadikim ( 36 hidden righteous people who sustain the world ).

Varying from different communities, Internet forum humor often involves image macros, Internet memes, random objects and people, false news stories and sarcasm.

In addition, jaggies often occur when a bit-mapped image is converted to a different resolution.

While he cultivated a cavalier image ( red-lined gray cape, yellow sash, hat cocked to the side with an ostrich plume, red flower in his lapel, often sporting cologne ), his serious work made him the trusted eyes and ears of Robert E. Lee's army and inspired Southern morale.

* Key plate, a plate which prints the detail in an image, often using the color black

A further effect is often to give the illusion of the image floating in mid-air.

The use of deuterium HCL is preferable compared to an arc lamp due to the better fit of the image of the former lamp with that of the analyte HCL.

Even if the image is sharp, it may be distorted compared to ideal pinhole projection.

As a satirical utopia, Erewhon has sometimes been compared to Gulliver's Travels ( 1726 ), a classic novel by Jonathan Swift ; the image of Utopia in this latter case also bears strong parallels with the self-view of the British Empire at the time.

Dynamically loadable modules incur a small overhead when compared to building the module into the operating system image.

Computer generated image of Rigel compared to the Sun ( to scale )

The spot size and the interaction volume are both large compared to the distances between atoms, so the resolution of the SEM is not high enough to image individual atoms, as is possible in the shorter wavelength ( i. e. higher energy ) transmission electron microscope ( TEM ).

The brown and orange disks of color are objectively identical, in identical gray surrounds, in this image ; their perceived color categories depend on what white they are compared to.

VCD's most noticeable disadvantage compared to DVD is image quality, due both to the more aggressive compression necessary to fit video into such a small capacity as well as the compression method used.

MPEG modifies this across frames in a motion image, further reducing the size compared to a series of JPEGs.

" Over the years, and especially since the 1999 split, the FN has cultivated a more moderate image on issues of immigration and Islam, at least compared to some of the proposals of Mégret's MNR or Philippe de Villiers's Movement for France.

With the release of the first feature-length Superman movie in 1978, a vastly less idyllic image of Krypton, compared to the previous comics ' versions, was presented.

The use of paper as a negative meant that the texture and fibers of the paper were visible in prints made from it, leading to an image that was slightly grainy or fuzzy compared to daguerreotypes, which were usually sharp and clear Nevertheless, calotypes — and the salted paper prints that were made from them — remained popular in the United Kingdom and on the European continent outside of France until the collodion process enabled photographers to make glass negatives later in the nineteenth century.

Pinhole devices provide safety for the eyes when viewing solar eclipses because the event is observed indirectly, the diminished intensity of the pinhole image being harmless compared with the full glare of the Sun itself.

This interference between the two paths with different geometric phase results in a varying intensity distribution in the image reducing apparent contrast and resolution compared to a porro prism erecting system.

Rigel and Aldebaran ( top left and right ) compared to smaller stars and the Sun ( very small dot in lower middle ): click image for larger view and links to other scales.

Early versions of NTSC rapidly alternated between particular colors in identical image areas to make them appear adding up to each other to the human eye, while all modern analogue and even most digital video standards use chroma subsampling by recording a picture's color information at only half the resolution compared to the brightness information.

A detail of an original image at the top, compared to a reprocessed version at the bottom created by LOIRP.

The earliest surviving image in a Western illuminated manuscript of the Madonna and Child comes from the Book of Kells of about 800 ( there is a similar carved image on the lid of St Cuthbert's coffin of 698 ) and, though magnificently decorated in the style of Insular art, the drawing of the figures can only be described as rather crude compared to Byzantine work of the period.

U. S. Army historian Roy Edgar Appleman observed that the term " human wave " was later used by journalists and military officials to convey the image that the American soldiers were assaulted by overwhelming numbers of Chinese on a broad front, which is inaccurate when compared with the normal Chinese practice of sending successive series of five men teams against a narrow portion of the line.

This somehow contrasts with the image of the Elizabethan era as the time of William Shakespeare, but compared to the antecedent Marian Persecutions there is an important difference to consider.

The large airspace between the first and second elements allows focusing by moving the front element only ; as the displacement is small compared with the airspace, the adverse effect on image performance is not severe.

For example, binaries present on disk can be compared with their copies within operating memory ( in some operating systems, the in-memory image should be identical to the on-disk image ), or the results returned from file system or Windows Registry APIs can be checked against raw structures on the underlying physical disks — however, in the case of the former, some valid differences can be introduced by operating system mechanisms like memory relocation or shimming.
