A negative is a single image, normally captured onto unexposed 35mm film in long narrow strips which are coated in cellulose acetate, the camera advances the film after each shot so that the next picture is captured onto the next unexposed piece of film. In photographic terms, each image is a negative, and the entrire strip of film is referred to as negatives. The negative images are the master copy of the photograph, from which all other copies will be made.

A negative image is an inversion of the normal image, dark areas will appear light and light areas will appear dark, in addition, a negative color image has colours reversed so that red appears as cyan, green appears as magents and blues appear as yellow. Part of the scanning process required is to increase the contrast due to the lower contrast on the negative film.

Negatives are created when light is exposed onto a film, the chemicals on the film react and become opaque during the developing process. To create the final positive image, the logic of multiplying two negative numbers to create a positive number is used, the negative process is applied again to the negative film which produces the final positive image.
