Frequency spectrum of image (using Fourier Transform):
As stated by @tomasz, the fourier transform relates only globally to the image since the pixels of the transform correspond to frequencies in the original image (which you may intuitively understand - somewhat - as speed of color variation as you move on the original image). This is well explained on the web : An Intuitive Explanation of Fourier Theory
