Adjust Color

STEP 5. Make Your Photo Vivid And Energetic

Color adjustment is simple. Usually, you just increase or decrease the SATURATION function.

SATURATION function can either increase or decrease color.

On the left is the original photo while on the right is the one which I increased the color. The rich color adds vividness and reality to your photo.

Before editing the color, just look back the basics in “Chapter 2. How To Improve Your Photo/ Improving Color” . If you increase brightness, increase color as well. If you decrease brightness, then decrease color.

I will explain how to adjust color if I increase brightness.

Sailor Moon Figure is dark.
I increased BRIGHTNESS up to 100.
Sailor Moon figure became bright and whitish.

I increased brightness, so I will increase color according to the basics.

I increased SATURATION up to 100. I would like to increase more, but this is the limit.
Sailor Moon figure became vivid

Do you remember the basics of how to adjust color? I increased brightness so the figure became bright and whitish. But after I increased the color, the appearance of the figure became vivid and clear.

Let us go back to the our lesson.

The brightness of this photo had been adjusted. It became brighter than the original photo. So I will increase the color, too.

The photo is whitish

Let us increase color using the SATURATION function.

I increased SATURATION up to 20. First, I increased more, but the photo became too reddish so I stopped it.
The girl’s skin color, bag and blue sky became vivid.

Look at the result on the right photo. After I increased the color of the photo on the left.
