Contrast is the difference in visual properties that makes an object (or its representation in an image) distinguishable from other objects and the background. In visual perception of the real world, contrast is determined by the difference in the color and brightness of the object and other objects within the same field of view.

The word Contrast used in cameras means "the white levels" to adjust them, whereas the word "Brightness" means the Dark levels

To show differences when compared: siblings who contrast sharply in interests and abilities; a color that contrasted clearly with the dark background.

1695, from Fr. contraster, from It. contrastare "stand out against," from V.L. *contrastare "to withstand," from L. contra "against" + stare "to stand," from PIE base *sta- "to stand" (see stet). M.E. had contrest "to fight against, to withstand," which became extinct. Modern word re-introduced c.1700 as an art term.
