haloing
Forming bright circle
Haloing is the present participle of halo, meaning to surround with or form a halo—a ring of light or glow around something: Mist was haloing the streetlamps.
The term appears in photography and digital imaging for an unwanted bright edge artifact around high-contrast boundaries: The aggressive sharpening is haloing the subject.
