		Computational photography refers to computer image processing in which the image acquisition is influenced by the desire to process multiple pictures of the same subject matter, into an aggregate image or image sequence.
		Ideally, computational photography captures, as best as possible, an array of real numbers rather than integers, while maintaining the ability to store, wirelessly send, process, and display the image on a continuous tone scale.
		There are two main file formats for computational photography: one is based on an extension of the PPM (Portable Pixmap), and the other is based on an extension of JPEG.

	Close-up Photography Books
		Close-up photography is used in a variety of areas such as nature, medical and forensic, instruction and training, archiving, and the arts.
		Many photography books have some information about close-up work, but usually the subject is not treated in-depth and the variety of problems likely to come up when the photographer begins magnifying are not addressed.
		The creative side of close-up photography is also explained in detail, including useful tips for discovering and capturing artistic insights, along with color, composition, lighting, themes, center of interest, artistic ethics and digital imaging.

		It is shown that double exposure speckle photography (DESP) in the frame mode allows the derivation of a two dimensional map of deflection angle experienced by light passing through a turbulent flow.
		A mathematical description of light propagation in an optically inhomogeneous medium is presented.
		The obtained results show that speckle photography may be used as a basis for tomographic studies of 3D temperature fields in such combustion zones.

		Uses: Although infrared photography is a wonderful medium for the fine art photographer, it was not initially developed for that purpose.

		Their mathematics background generally is quite limited and while this did not allow an in-depth mathematical treatment of the experiment, most of them were able to handle without great difficulty the mathematical concepts which were necessary for a preliminary approach to the problem.
		The field of technical photography is quickly becoming depleted of personnel who have an awareness of the procedures and techniques associated with a sub-specialty within the field, known as "photoinstrumentation".
		During photography, the drum with the film attached to it was set in motion and the rate was adjusted so that the film surface speed was approximately equal to the expected speed at which the image of the flying rocket would pass by the slit in the camera.

		The layout and type-setting are also superb, and the short biographies included are a welcome addition, making the book feel slightly less formal, which I found a breath of fress air in comparison to other texts on the subject.
		I agree with other reviewers that this book is the first choice if you want to get a handle on mathematical methods of theoretical physics at advanced undergraduate / beginning graduate level.
		The nearest competitor is Byron & Fuller's "Mathematics of Classical and Quantum Physics" which has been around a long time and has many good points; but having used both I prefer this.

	C F Systems Color Integrity in Digital Photography
		Initially we intended this tip to be a no- or low-math summary of the rather mathematical treatment we were preparing on the important problem of color integrity in digital photography.
		For those willing to accept a few things on faith that the technical report demonstrates with physics and mathematics, here a simple example demonstrates that there is a basic, largely unrecognized problem in digital imaging and what it means to photographers.
		For reasons explained in the mathematical companion report, we currently recommend that if you plan to make a large change to the complete grayscale to change the contrast in an image, convert the image to Lab color first, make the adjustment on the "lightness" channel and then convert back to RGB if you wish.

		Partly this was as a result of the legendary status that men like Thales achieved, and partly it was the result of scientists with relatively little history behind their subjects trying to increase the status of their topic with giving it an historical background.
		Penrose has argued previously, notably in Shadows of the Mind, in favor of mathematical platonism — the view that mathematical notions (numbers, primeness, the Mandelbrot set) have an existence that is independent both of the physical world and of our mental world.
		We can perceive mathematical notions, but this perception does not generate them in a way that is analogous to how physical states can generate mental processes — mathematical notions are not dependent upon our perception for their existence, at least not if you are a mathematical platonist.
