What Does Image Editing Mean?

Image editing refers to modifying or

improving digital or traditional
photographic images using different
techniques, tools or software. Images
produced by scanners, digital cameras or
other image-capturing devices may be
good, but not perfect. Image editing is
done to create the best possible look for
the images and also to improve the
overall quality of the image according to
different parameters.

*How often do you share images on your

social media accounts?
-Social Media Week recommends posting 5-10 times a

suggest.

Instagram.

emotionally distress, and influence public opinions and

evaluate the authenticity of images that accompany
online stories.
