Use of Salir

Qué linda sale en esa foto. (It's a comment of a photo I took of a girl by a friend)
The use of sale/salir confuses me, I always picture in my mind it meaning "to leave, to go out". In this instance it means "how pretty you appear in this photo" ? Correct?

Yes, you are right! we use "sales/saliste" or even "te ves" trying to mean "appear" or "look like".

Yes. Salir used when talking about photographs, pictures, etc. means "to appear".

I think "come out" or "turn out" would be the likely expression ...
