  Picture plane - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A picture plane is the imaginary flat surface which is usually located between the station point and the object being viewed and is ordinarily a vertical plane perpendicular to the horizontal projection of the line of sight to the object's order of interest.
In photography the physical surface of a print can be thought of as the manifestation of its picture plane.
The position of the camera at the time of image capture is the station point, and the edges of the camera's field of view create the imaginary borders of the picture plane, finally translating to the physical edges of a photographic print.

Thus, the front plane, which is parallel to the picture plane, can be drawn and the sides produced back from the corners to the vanishing point.
Picture plane is perpendicular in regard to the ground plane and the projection of picture plane on the ground plane is the ground of picture plane (X).
Straight lines, parallel to the picture plane but not to the ground of picture plane also do not have vanishing point (they are located in infinity) and their perspectives remain parallel to these lines.

Had we described it as the picture of a slanted box projected onto a vertical picture plane, we would have had to relabel the vanishing points, for the box would have neither horizontal nor vertical surfaces and the vanishing points of the cube would therefore not lie on the horizon line.
The principal ray is the projecting ray that runs perpendicularly from the center of projection into the picture, whatever the slant of the picture plane.
In Figure 2.4, the principal ray intersects the picture plane at the horizon.

The fact that an element (A) at the picture plane partly hides another element (B) gives us the information that A is closer to us than B. On the other hand, occlusion does not inform us about the distance between elements.
The position at the picture plane (top/bottom) is a vague and in many cases ambiguous depth cue.
The surface layout in pictures can be seen as a combination of textures, contour lines, occlusion and the position at the picture plane.

 Drawing in Perspective
Nevertheless, though the picture plane in itself is imaginary, it has a vital function in drawing, just as vital, in fact, as the imaginary lines of latitude and longitude without which navigation would be nearly impossible.
When the picture plane is vertical, the usual case, it is naturally parallel to vertical lines in the object, which appear truly vertical, as in Fig.
Lastly, when the picture plane is parallel not only to the vertical lines, but to one of the sets of horizontals as well, these horizontals appear as truly horizontal in the image.

There are two ways to do that: Either replace the wall of the picture plane with a piece of ground glass and view the image from outside, or replace it with a photosensitive plate that can be developed into a photograph.
Since bodies are covered with planes, all the planes of a body seen at one glance will make a pyramid packed with as many smaller pyramids as there are planes.
This equivalence is not limited by the size of the window represented by the picture frame, or the angle of slant chosen for the picture plane.

 PHA, The False Picture Plane   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
The false picture plane is achieved by fooling the viewer into thinking he or she knows where the surface (or picture plane) of the picture really is. Any flat surface is called a "plane" (note spelling, remember your math!), and "picture plane" is a well-known term for the assumed surface of the picture.
The picture plane is the same: it is the invisible surface that we assume is there, and usually ignore, apart from assuming that nothing we see in the picture can pass through it onto our side of the "glass".
The false picture plane is when the artist has tricked you into thinking the picture plane is actually somewhere else, and then he places foreshortened objects with shadows in front of it - which can be most disconcerting.

The idea is that the picture in its frame should give the illusion of being a window through which the immobile eye of the observer looks at an outside 3-dimensional world.
Each spot visible through the window gives a spot in the picture, located at the intersection with the picture plane of the straight line joining it to the eye.
All lines in space which are perpendicular to the picture-plane appear in the picture as emanating from a single point (``the point at infinity'' or ``the vanishing point''), which is the the foot of the perpendicular from the eye to the picture-plane.

 picture plane
It is an unnatural way to look at things but it is the essential concept underlying linear perspective.
Staring this way at the fixation point establishes the line of sight, and the line of sight establishes the orientation of the picture plane because the picture plane is always perpendicular (90 degrees) to the line of sight.
This is a line that is understood to run horizontally through the picture plane precisely at the level of the fixation point.

 Diffraction and the Fraunhofer Plane
The diffracting obstacle in the picture above resides in the xy plane and the lens focuses the diffracted rays to the XY, or Fraunhofer, plane.
The xy plane is where the aperture resides (as in the picture in the theory section), so our diffraction pattern determined by the amplitude function g(x,y) and Fresnel-Kirchoff formula U(x,y) appears in the uv plane (same as XY plane described in theory section).
Thus, to see the image that appears in the x'y' plane in the diagram above, which should be of the diffracting aperture itself, one needs to integrate the phase of light over the Fraunhofer Plane (as was done in the xy plane) to obtain the diffracting object pattern.

 Count On
The anamorphic effect is to look at the image on the picture plane and have it appear to be a square grid, as if the square grid were placed in the position AB.
In a normal perspective picture the foreshortening means that the lines of the grid appear closer together the farther away the lines of the grid are to the viewer.
In a plane anamorphic grid, the lines are equally spaced on the real grid but appear closer together on the part of the image nearest to the viewing point.
