2.5.9 Setting the Contrast, Brightness
and Color Intensity - Curves
The
Curves
function is the most sophisticated tool for adjusting the color,
contrast, and brightness of an image. It does, however, require some effort
to learn how to use it. It is easier to work with some of the other tools, such
as
Levels
(tonality correction),
Brightness-Contrast
, and
Color Balance
or
Hue-
Saturation
.
You can access the
Curves
tool by choosing
Colors > Curves
or
Tools >
Color Tools > Curves
.
I'll use the example images in this section to briefly explain how this tool
works.
