Adjusting with the Adjust dialog choices |
|
Brightness and Contrast Notice that you can change the portion of the photo to better see how your settings are applied. |
 |
Color Balance You'll need to experiment carefully with the three variables. |
 |
Flash/Backlighting - Flash In this case it was possible to open up the shadow area. Of course, it is usually used with photographs of people to better see detail in the foreground. |
 |
|
Flash/Backlighting - Backlighting In this case a Backlighting adjustment was used to take some of the brightness out of the background. |
 |
Saturation This is one of the best ways to improve a lackluster photo. |
 |
Sharpness |
 |
This is the sharpening tool you should use because you will be better able to finetune just how much unsharp mask will be applied. |
|
The Crop Tool is really quite nice.
|
 |
Effects - Photo Edge Nice choices - not 'cute', amateurish ones! Other effects include
changing your photo to black and white or sepia toned, you can add
picture frames and borders too. (Picture frame possibilities are ghastly
though, as they are in most programs.) |
 |
The Text Tool has been very well done... better than in many full-fledged image editing programs, because you can work right on the photo rather than in a separate box. |
 |
Other Options - shown in the Tools menu. Make Movie prepares a Quick Time movie from a set of several images. The Catalog and Database options are beyond the purview of this article. Explore the Options to set Preferences. |
 |
The Share Menu There are fun things to do here! |
