Add a little contrast to your image by clicking on the three-quarter tone area of the
white curve line (the area between the middle of the curve and the top, as shown in
the i gure), then clicking and dragging up slightly. Again, this is a visual correction, so
don't make too drastic a change.
Click and drag the three-quarter tone up slightly to lighten the image.

Keep the Curves Properties panel open for the next section of this lesson.
You can usually see a color cast by looking at the white and gray areas of an image, but, in
some cases, you may not have any gray or white objects in your image. If these are art images,
you may not want to neutralize them ( for example, orange sunsets on the beach, or nice yellow
candlelight images). Use the technique shown in this lesson at your discretion. It helps with a
typical image, but it takes practice and experience to correct for every type of image.
