Correct Answer: C

According to the GDPR, the processing of photographs should be considered processing of special categories of personal data when processed with the intent to uniquely identify or authenticate a natural person. This is because photographs fall under the definition of biometric data only when they are processed through specific technical means that allow for such unique identification or authentication.
