English term or phrase: halation
Definition from Neenah Paper, Inc.:
In photography, a blurred effect, resembling a halo, usually occurring in the highlight areas or around bright objects.

Example sentence(s):
  • Use your wide-open CA test shot, and examine the branches. If they have a translucent look, it’s probably due to halation. Colours Magazine
  • Halation creates secondary ghost images in the film, which to photographers is bad because they are a by-product of unintentional light and film interaction. anbstudio
  • To combat halation, film manufacturers treat the base of the film to reduce or nullify reflections. Grey base is a film base permanently dyed a low density grey colour, this reduces reflection back into the emulsion and light-piping within the base. National Film and Sound Archive
