Image Adjustments and Effects 115<br />
• Red Eye<br />
Removes the dreaded red eye effect from subject's eyes—commonly<br />
encountered with flash photography.<br />
• Blemish Removal<br />
Removes simple skin blemishes and other flaws.<br />
• Brightness and Contrast<br />
Simple adjustments to a photo's brightness, contrast, shadows, and highlights.<br />
• Colour<br />
"Cool down" or "warm up" your photo by adjusting white balance either by<br />
selecting presets or customizing temperature/tint combinations. Colour<br />
saturation can also be altered.<br />
• Greyscale<br />
Intelligently apply greyscale by varying the grey tones of red, green or blue<br />
colours in your original image.<br />
• Sharpen<br />
Makes your image sharper at image edges—great for improving image quality<br />
after other adjustments have been made.<br />
Some adjustments can also be applied independently from the Effects<br />
menu.<br />
Overview: Applying special effects<br />
Creative effects are grouped into different categories, i.e. distortion, blur, sharpen,<br />
edge, noise, render, and stylistic. Individual effects can be applied to the active<br />
layer or selection either individually or cumulatively via a Filter Gallery or just<br />
individually via the Effects menu. As with image adjustments (see Overview:<br />
adjusting image colours on p. 110), you can use filter effects to improve the image,<br />
for example by sharpening, but more often the emphasis here is on the "creative"<br />
possibilities when effects are applied.<br />
Equally dramatic artistic effects can be applied by using the studio-based Instant<br />
Artist, warp tools via the Tools toolbar's flyout, or 2D/3D layer effects via the<br />
Layers tab.
