	Afterimage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An afterimage is an optical illusion that occurs after looking away from a direct gaze at an image.
		One of the most common afterimages is the bright glow that seems to float before one's eyes after staring at a light bulb or a headlight for a few seconds.
		Afterimages are caused when the eye's photoreceptors, primarily those known as cone cells, adapt from the over stimulation and lose sensitivity.

	Exploratorium: Science Snacks: Afterimage
		The area of the retina that was desensitized by the bright image does not respond as well to this new light input as the rest of the retina.
		The apparent size of the afterimage depends not only on the size of the image on your retina, but also on how far away you perceive the image to be.
		The afterimage is not actually on either surface, but on your retina.

	The Negative Afterimage Simulation:
		This negative afterimage, as the name implies, looks similar to the original image, but differs in color.
		However, many features of negative afterimages cannot be attributed to simple fatigue of the cones of a particular color class.
		The Negative Afterimage simulation is a pretty basic simulation that is intended only to let you investigate the phenomenon of its namesake, the negative afterimage.

	Afterimage Perception (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		This new experiment is an investigation of the effects of self-esteem on the influenceability of subjects' perception of a color afterimage.
		It was predicted that subjects with lower self-esteem would be more likely to see an afterimage complimentary to the suggested color, while subjects with high self-esteem would experience an afterimage closer to the true compliment of the stimulus.
		It was accepted that the stimulus in this experiment left an afterimage that scored a 9 on the scale by the experimenters, an afterimage complimentary to green.

	Afterimage, by Helen Humphreys, Reading Group Guide, Henry Holt and Company Publishers of Quality Books
		Though not a fictionalized biography, Afterimage is indeed a sensitive, subtly moving historical novel: a story of big ideas, strong passions, aesthetic impulses, and personal secrets.
		As historical and intellectual as it is aesthetic and visceral, Afterimage has much to teach us about the then-emerging technologies of photography and cartography, which both combine elements of art and science for purposes of representation and preservation.
		Later, when Isabelle is crying after a fierce quarrel with Eldon, she thus confides in Annie: "Everything would be easier if I were you." And finally, before posing as the Divine Madonna, Annie thinks: "Perhaps [I] could be the mother of the Lord.

	Journal of Vision - Afterimage colour affected by colour constancy, by Sakata
		An afterimage colour following prior adaptation to visual stimuli is thought to be due to bleaching of photochemical pigments, or to a mechanism of neural adaptation on the retina.
		In this paper, afterimage colours were measured by the blank rotation method, a series of very short-term blank of colour stimuli causes afterimage clearly, which contributed to know exact opponent colour.
		The lines on the chromaticity diagram between a stimulus and an induced afterimage colour were not crossed at optical white point, but at white point of colour constancy.

	[No title]
		To experience an afterimage take a look at a bright object, close your eyes, and retain a blur replica of this object.
		Whatever the anatomical structures are involved, as long as the whole process is localized inside the head feeling the detachment of afterimages seems unnatural.
		The afterimage is caused because an object is moving too fast for your brain to track it's path completely, so you only catch glimpses of the object's movement.

	AfterImage Show
		This optical illusion is known as an afterimage.
		After the array of dots stops moving, an afterimage of a familiar painting is revealed in the otherwise blank frame.
		This happens because the afterimage subconsciously invokes the original image from their memory, neurologically combining it with the image from the eye.

	The Antigonish Review 126: Karin Cope Reviews After Image by Helen Humphreys
		Helen Humphreys' widely and justly acclaimed second novel, Afterimage, is a finely paced, carefully researched, and exquisitely told historical tale of ambition, longing, and unrealized dreams.
		Darwin is thus a shadowy but important figure in the narrative, as are numerous explorers; the mapping of Canada, particularly the arctic, takes up a good deal of imaginative space, as does a subtle elaboration of anti-colonial sentiment and various progressive views on class and the education of women.
		As Humphreys acknowledges in her "Author's note," the story that Afterimage tells is in part inspired by the lives and images left by two historical female figures - the pioneering Victorian photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron, and one of her maids and models, Mary Hillier.

		The music of AfterImage is highly melodic, at times set amidst a hard rock ambience of gritty guitar and organ, or placed tenderly against soft, quiet instrumentation.
		On previous AfterImage albums, its hard rock music has featured pop-influenced melodies, comparable to the style of Bon Jovi and Firehouse.

		for about a second, the afterimage is 'positive', and then it turns to 'negative', often with fleeting colors.
		The positive phase is due to after-discharge of the receptors of the retina; the negative phase is caused by loss of sensitivity of the receptors as a result of bleaching of the photo-pigments by the intense light.
		Afterimages can be annoying, but they are usually ignored or suppressed.
