Can photographic works be cut and colored?

Different photo competitions have different requirements for works.

Generally speaking, the original photos can be cropped completely.

The color matching of some news photography is limited. This should be analyzed in detail. If the whole raw file is white balanced and exposure adjusted, there is basically no problem. However, if the part of the photo is rendered by manual color adjustment, it is unacceptable for some photo contests that require authenticity.

It is best to know the requirements and evaluation criteria of the organizing Committee before submitting the manuscript, so as to avoid misunderstanding and embarrassment.

I hope my answer can help you.
