DCP #9: Editing Images

Using digital software (Adobe Photoshop), I am editing all the images.

When editing images, there are a few different tools you can apply to enhance the image. These include:

  • Exposure/Brightness

  • Contrast

  • Tones (Highlight)

  • Tones (Shadow)

  • Saturation

  • Ambiance

  • White Balance (Temperature: warm or cold)

  • White Balance (Tints)

  • Skin Tones

  • Sharpening

  • Clarity

  • Grain Effect

  • Vignette

  • Fade

  • Split Colour Tones

  • Perspective

  • Cropping

These features tend to change the whole image but when editing, there are always small sections of the work that you want to fix. That is where selective brushes come in handy to edit small portions of the work. These brushes can also include:

  • Details

  • Blur

  • Dodge and Burn

  • Exposure/Brightness

  • Temperature

  • Saturation

  • Structure

  • Contrast


Again, using the same image in the previous blog posts, take a look at the transformation of the image from the very first steps. The last image is the edited image.
