Whats difference between words, Picture, Photos, Images?

Question

I think the same mean.

Answer 1

Picture means that u draw or drawn by somebody else.
Photos are taken using a camera.
Images are all these things put together.

Answer 2

The difference depends on the context.

In terms of the human evaluation process, an image would be called a percept--it is that which is in your mind. A picture would be a conceptualization of that percept--a physical manifestation of the percept, esp. a creation you made to represent the percept.

A photo would be a mechanical representation of some stimulus. Your mind isn't really involved--a photo is the creation of a camera rather than a creation of yours.

However, in other contexts, you can use the terms almost interchangeably.

I hope that gives you a clear *image* of the differences! :)

Answer 3

When you take Pictures they are Photos and when you save them on your PC they are Images.

Answer 4

pictures are like paintings

photos are from cameras

and images are in the computer


easy

Answer 5

they can be used to hav different meanings .. for example u can have an image of something in ur head but iu cant hav a photo in ur head.. u can picture someone in a different situation but u cant photo them .... i hope you get what i mean they can be used in several different contexts

Answer 6

no not all the same...they can all describe the same things sometimes.....like a photograph of something...could be all three...but a painting is only a picture and an immage......and an mirage you see in the desert is only an image

Answer 7

painting, picture

graphic art consisting of an artistic composition made by applying paints to a surface; "a small painting by Picasso"; "he bought the painting as an investment"; "his pictures hang in the Louvre"
1 photograph, photo, exposure, pic

a picture of a person or scene in the form of a print or transparent slide; recorded by a camera on light-sensitive material

A representation, consisting of rows and columns of dots, of a graphics image in computer memory. The value of each dot (whether it is filled in or not) is stored in one or more bits of data. For simple monochrome images, one bit is sufficient to represent each dot, but for colors and shades of gray, each dot requires more than one bit of data. The more bits used to represent a dot, the more colors and shades of gray that can be represented.
The density of the dots, known as the resolution, determines how sharply the image is represented. This is often expressed in dots per inch (dpi ) or simply by the number of rows and columns, such as 640 by 480.

To display a bit-mapped image on a monitor or to print it on a printer, the computer translates the bit map into pixels (for display screens) or ink dots (for printers). Optical scanners and fax machines work by transforming text or pictures on paper into bit maps.

Bit-mapped graphics are often referred to as raster graphics. The other method for representing images is known as vector graphics or object-oriented graphics. With vector graphics, images are represented as mathematical formulas that define all the shapes in the image. Vector graphics are more flexible than bit-mapped graphics because they look the same even when you scale them to different sizes. In contrast, bit-mapped graphics become ragged when you shrink or enlarge them.

Fonts represented with vector graphics are called scalable fonts , outline fonts , or vector fonts. The best-known example of a vector font system is PostScript. Bit-mapped fonts, also called raster fonts, must be designed for a specific device and a specific size and resolution.
