photography.
“rule of thirds”
Resizing- changing the size of the image
depending on the usage.

Remember!
Save a copy of your image before you resize it so that
you can use it at a different size in the future.
Brightness- the amount of light of an image

Contrast- defines the separation between the

darkest area and brightest areas of the image.
REMEMBER :
Increase in contrast and you increase the separation between the
dark and the bright, making shadows darker and highlights
brighter.
 Sharpening is the tool that gives emphasis
on textures and for drawing viewer focus.

Note:
Excessive image sharpness will always increase the
amount of contrast and distorts color relationships.

Softening – Is the opposite of Sharpening

• Basic automatic image improvement features in
camera and image editing programs
• Corrects color imbalances , red eye reduction,
sharpness adjustments, zoom features and
automatic cropping

• Why automatic?
- Because it happens with less user interaction or its
offered with one click of a button

reduce file size and save storage space
