In traditional photography, overexposure is a term used to describe the process of exposing
film to too much light, which results in the photograph being too bright. In
digital photography, where there is no
film, overexposure refers to a white-looking or washed-out image (overexposed
image). This generally happens when a digital photo or
video was shot with too much light on the subject. If you're shooting with
the wrong camera settings, the result can also be overexposed images.
