exposures

Times film catches

Exposures is the plural of exposure, which centers on being uncovered or revealed.

In photography, an exposure is a single frame—one instance of light hitting film or sensor: She took several exposures of the sunset.

In finance, exposures are vulnerabilities to risk: The bank's exposures to subprime mortgages proved catastrophic.

Medical exposures refer to contact with pathogens, radiation, or harmful substances: Workers tracked their daily exposures to asbestos.
