Can center either Shift storage after transform / before inverse transform Mathematically preprocess to cause the shift to happen: multiply by 1x ,y in time/spatial domain before and after
Properties
Rotation
Rotating a 2-D function rotates its Fourier Transform.
All other properties from one-dimensional signals apply: Linearity Shift Scaling Rayleighs Theorem
If f2 = rot f1 F1 = F (f1 ) F2 = F (f2 ) then F2 = rot F1 i.e., the Fourier Transform is rotationally invariant.
Example: Rotation

Spatial Frequencies
Intuition: Gradual transitions require only low-frequency sinusoids Rapid transitions require high-frequency sinusoids So, Places with low spatial frequency content: smooth regions Places with high spatial frequency content: edges, texture And Low-pass ltering = smoothing High-frequency boosting = sharpening
