The Goal of retouching is to produce a final image that accurately represents the subject, but with improved visual quality and appeal. It is a common practice in fashion, portrait, and product photography to enhance the final images and make them more appealing to the target audience.
Compositing in photo editing refers to the process of combining multiple images or elements into a single, seamless image. This technique allows photographers and graphic designers to create complex scenes, environments, or special effects that would be impossible or impractical to capture in a single photo or video shot.
