correcting colour, removing bad shadows, fixing clothes,
fixing hair, fixing skin, lighten/darken areas, motion
effects, red eye repair, remove persons from group
photographs, remove unwanted objects etc.

parts of the image, softening portraits, adding
perspective, correcting distortions, adding optical lens
