Shadows/Highlights
Exposure problems often plague photos. Dark shadows may make
a photo seem unusable, but Photoshop offers a powerful com-
mand for fixing these problems. The image command Shadows/
Highlights is very flexible for solving problems. The command can
help salvage images where the subject is silhouetted from strong
backlight. You can also use the command to improve subjects who
have been washed out by the camera's flash.
The Shadows/Highlights command does more than lighten or
darken an image. It makes adjustments by analyzing neighbor-
ing pixels. However, when first opened, the tool is very basic. It is
important to select the Show More Options check box, which adds
significant control. Let's give the command a try.
1.
Close any open files, and then open the file Ch10_Shadows_
Highlight_1.tif from the Chapter 10 folder.
