Wikipedia description:

A photograph (also known as a photo, or more generically referred to as an image or picture) is an image created by light contacting a photosensitive surface, usually photographic film or an electronic image sensor. The process and practice of creating such images is called photography. Photographs are now created using a smartphone or camera, which uses a lens to focus the scene's visible wavelengths of light into a reproduction of what the human eye would perceive.
