Image+Editing

Image Editing is based on making changes to existing images.

Some basic concepts borrowed from Photography

Cropping Cropping lets you change the portion of the image that is shown. Often a picture with poor composition can be improved by cropping using the rule of thirds.

Cropping can also change the focus of the image so that a different story is told.

Adjusting Brightness / Contrast In general, I recommend not making manual changes to the brightness. It is very easy to mess up a photo rather than improve it. When using an editing software that provides a live preview, can experiment with the changes. (I recommend saving the new image as a new name so that you can change your mind and return to the original. (Some software does this with 'Non-Destructive' Saving)

Another Aspect of Image Editing is Mashing the image with a special purpose app.
