D Correct answer
Explanation

Adjusting the exposure and contrast, cropping and straightening the image, and removing blemishes and imperfections are all common steps in editing a portrait in post-processing.

Multiple choice

How can underexposure be corrected in post-processing?

  1. By increasing the brightness

  2. By decreasing the contrast

  3. By adjusting the white balance

  4. By removing unwanted noise
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Underexposure results in a darker image, which can be corrected in post-processing by increasing the brightness or exposure value to make the image brighter.

Multiple choice

How can overexposure be corrected in post-processing?

  1. By decreasing the brightness

  2. By increasing the contrast

  3. By adjusting the white balance

  4. By removing unwanted noise
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Overexposure results in a brighter image, which can be corrected in post-processing by decreasing the brightness or exposure value to make the image darker.

Multiple choice

How is the Gram-Schmidt process used in applications such as image processing and signal processing?

  1. To decorrelate signals and extract features

  2. To reduce noise and enhance image quality

  3. To compress data and reduce storage requirements

  4. To solve optimization problems and find optimal solutions
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The Gram-Schmidt process is used in applications such as image processing and signal processing to decorrelate signals and extract features, which is useful for tasks like image denoising, feature extraction, and signal compression.

Adjusting exposure and contrast is a common post-processing technique used in street photography to improve the overall look and feel of the image, enhancing its impact and clarity.

Multiple choice

Which of the following is not a common technique used in black and white photography?

  1. Underexposure

  2. Overexposure

  3. Color toning

  4. HDR (High Dynamic Range)
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

HDR (High Dynamic Range) is not a technique commonly used in black and white photography, as it aims to capture a wider range of tones and colors, which is not necessary in a grayscale image.

Multiple choice
