Answer:

The present participle is "winning." It is used as an adjective to describe the "team."

Explanation:

A "present participle" is being used in order to express an action that is present. This uses the<em> -ing form of the verb</em> in order to show that an action is happening at the moment. It can be used as an <em>adjective</em>. For example:

  • A<em> crying</em> boy.
  • The <em>bouncing</em> ball.

So, in the example sentence above (The winning team received a trophy after the game), the present participle is "winning." This modifies the word "team."

Remember that compared to past participles, a present participle is often active while a past participle is often passive.

The concept of retouching photos is a touchy subject.

Photographers must ask themselves: When does retouching a photo cross over into going too far? Is editing a photo to convince viewers of something false an acceptable practice? Does retouching a photo set unrealistic and false expectations for consumers?

We’ve outlined both sides of the argument – and want you to decide for yourself. What side are you on?

It’s a Lie: The Argument Against Retouching
Programs like Adobe Photoshop allow users to make changes to pictures so they look slightly or completely different from their original appearance. These programs can enhance certain features, diminish or completely erase certain features and even add features.

When magazines, businesses and advertisements retouch photos, a common argument is that this delivers a false message to the consumer. The photo is not truthful and therefore it is lying to the consumer.
