Image resolution

Hi there! Today we are going to talk about something called "image resolution." Do you know what an image is? It's a picture, like a photograph or a drawing, that we can see on a screen or in print.

Now, have you ever noticed that some pictures are really big and clear, while others are small and blurry? That has to do with their resolution. Resolution is a measure of how many tiny dots, called pixels, make up an image.

Think of pixels as the building blocks of a picture. The more pixels there are, the more detail we can see. Kind of like when you build a Lego tower - the more blocks you have, the taller and more intricate your tower can be.

So, when we talk about image resolution, we mean how many pixels there are in a picture. You might hear people talk about "high resolution" or "low resolution" images. A high resolution image has lots of pixels, so it looks really clear and crisp, even when you zoom in close. A low resolution image has fewer pixels, so it might look fuzzy or grainy if you enlarge it too much.

Different devices, like cameras or computer screens, have different capabilities when it comes to displaying images. Some can handle higher resolutions than others. So if you're trying to take a really high-quality photo, you might need to use a camera with a high resolution sensor.

In summary, image resolution is how many tiny pixels make up a picture, and it affects how clear and detailed the image looks. The more pixels there are, the better the image quality.
