• Cropping an image effectively can already make a huge difference to its impact.
• When you cut out distracting background, or a clutter of irrelevant objects around, the subject
of your photo stands out better.
• You can correct the placing of the subject if it is awkwardly placed by trimming one side, focus
more attention on a person’s face by cropping a wide shot into a portrait format.
Resizing
and
Compression
• When you have cropped and edited your image, so you have it looking just
the way you like, the next stage is to resize and compress it to the optimum
size for the use you intend it for. You may want to save a copy of your
edited image before you resize it, so that you can use it at a different size
later.
Resizing from
Digital Cameras
As the quality of digital cameras goes up, so
does the volume of pixels they can capture.
These days, shooting in your
camera’s highest quality mode can
yield an image bigger than your printer
can actually print. While most image
editing programs can resize your
photo in their respective print dialog boxes,
knowing how to do it yourself gives you
more control.
CORRECTING

• One of the first decisions you must make after downloading the files from
your camera is whether they all need generalized correction. This might be
because the light that was used to make the photographs was not consistent
with the white balance setting on the camera.
Sharpening
or
Softening

• Sharpening or softening is the last of the global


corrections that are often applied to digital images.
Two Ways in
Applying
Sharpening
• Pixel sharpening is applied to the pixels with
processes such as unsharp masking.
• Edge sharpening is applied only to the pixels that
the software can identify as being on an edge.
Sharpening may be
applied in all steps of
the imaging process:

1. Capture
2. Processing
3. Printing
• Raster images are stored in a computer in the form of a grid of picture
elements, or pixels.
• These pixels contain the images color and brightness information.
• Image editors can change the pixels to improve the image in many
ways.
• It is easier to rasterize a vector
image than to vectorize a
raster image.
• Vector images can be
modified more easily, because
they contain descriptions of
the shapes for easy
rearrangement.
• They are also scalable, being
rasterizable at any resolution.
Automatic Image • It improves the features that correct
color hue and brightness imbalances
Enhancement as well as other image editing
features, such as red eye removal,
sharpness adjustments, zoom
features and automatic cropping.
• These are called automatic because
generally they happen without user
interaction or are offered with one
click of a button or mouse button or
by selecting an option from a menu.
• Some automatic editing features
offer a combination of editing actions
with little or no user interaction.
• Many image file formats use Digital Data Compression
data compression to reduce file
size and save storage space.
• Digital compression of images
may take place in the camera,
or can be done in the computer
with the image editor.
• Some compression processes
such as those used in Portable
Network Graphics (PNG) file
format, are lossless, which
means no information is lost
when the file is saved.
PHOTOSHOP DOCUMENT (PSD)

A .psd file is the file


format in which
Photoshop saves
documents by default.
It is a multi-layer
document that retains
its full editing options
when saved.
LAYERS
• It is basically described as a
single transparent sheets
which hold particular pieces of
an image.
• These layers can contain
images, text and vector
graphics.
• They can be rearranged and
grouped according to user
needs.
• Layers are controlled with the
use of the Layers pane.
SELECTIONS
• It refers to a regions in an
image that will be affected
by the various tools.
• A selection in Photoshop is
similar to a selection that
you highlight in a word
processing application.
• It can be any shape and
size; the shape depends on
which selection tool you
are working with.
RESOLUTION
• It refers to the number
of pixels in a full size
image.
• It contains more
information than an
image with low
resolution.
• If you were to increase
the resolution of a lo-res
image, the result would
be fuzzy.
IMAGE SIZE
• Resolution should not
be confused with
image size, which is
also expressed in
pixels.
• It deals with the actual
number of pixels tall
and wide an image is.
COLOR MODE
• It refers to the
types of colors you
will be using in your
image.
• CMYK and RGB are
the most important
of these modes to
be familiar with.
CMYK
• It is the setting for images
that will be printed to
paper.
• The letters refer to the four
channels of color used to
create every color
available: cyan, magenta,
yellow and black.
RGB
• It refers to the three
channel color mode
suitable for images
to be viewed on the
web: red, green and
blue.
