Retouching

Using traditional film cameras you were pretty much stuck with the results of your efforts. If your image is under or over exposed, that is simply too bad, there is nothing you can do about that now.

You are out of luck if you photographed your subjects indoors and the flash made everyone and everything too yellow. The great thing is, with a digital camera and Photoshop (or whichever photo editing software that came with your camera), you can make adjustments to those photos that didn’t turn out that well.

Correcting the exposure is undoubtedly the most common adjustment made to digital photos. You may have taken a photo that is a bit too dark or too light.
