Capture

Capture in photography refers to the process of taking a photo, which involves recording the light from a scene onto a medium, such as film or a digital sensor. The process of capturing an image involves several technical and creative decisions, such as choosing the appropriate lens, setting the exposure time and aperture, adjusting the focus, and selecting the appropriate camera settings.

The result of the capture process is a still image that represents a moment in time and captures the subject, lighting, and other elements of the scene. Capturing an image can be a deliberate and carefully planned process, or it can be a spontaneous and reactive process, depending on the photographer’s approach and the situation. In either case, the process of capturing an image is a critical step in the creation of a photo and can greatly impact the final result.
