Photo manipulation is the application of image editing techniques to photographs in order to create an illusion or deception (in contrast to mere enhancement or correction), through analog or digital means. Its uses, cultural impact, and ethical concerns have made it a subject of interest beyond the technical process and skills involved.

If your photo requires more touch-up than you can achieve by using the Editor’s Quick Fix tab, you’re ready to use the photo retouching tools. These include tools for removing small and large imperfections, cloning parts of an image, blurring and sharpening parts of an image, adjusting color and contrast, and a lot more.

Spot Healing : Removes blemishes and other imperfections in your photos. You can click once or drag to smooth away small imperfections.

Healing : Fixes large areas of imperfection when you drag over them.
Clone Stamp: Paints with a sample of an image, which you can use to duplicate objects, remove imperfections, or paint over objects in your photo.

Blur: Softens hard edges or areas in an image to reduce detail. Blurring a busy background can bring your subjects more into focus.

Sharpen: Enhances the definition of edges in an image. Most images can benefit from some sharpening, but sharpening cannot restore a severely blurry image.
