Answer 1

In electrical engineering and computer science, image processing is any form of signal processing for which the input is an image, such as a photograph or video frame; the output of image processing may be either an image or, a set of characteristics or parameters related to the image. Most image-processing techniques involve treating the image as a two-dimensional signal and applying standard signal-processing techniques to it.[1]

So, I think you can call your software a Image Processing Software, once it check what this definition propose.

Answer 2

Yes, an application that does color balance, gray sheet effect, invert and red-eye fix, can reasonably be called image processing software. In fact, even a single one of those I would already call an image-processing algorithm.
