         Image with color and tone correction



Let’s get started……

1.Assess your original image
Get the Photoshop open and import your image needs to be corrected the color and tone.  Evaluate your image brightness, contrast, and color. This image is dark, has little contrast, and its overall color is shifted toward one color. We can fix this image easily using the Photoshop Levels dialog box. 



           2. Work in the Levels of New Adjustment Layers
Select the Layer option, go New Adjustment Layer and then hit Levels. A new dialog box will pop up named levels. Working in an adjustment layer rather than directly with the image leaves the original image untouched as if you can get rid of your changes and restore the original image at any time. 
 


This histogram dialog box show the image graphing the number of pixels at each intensity level. Different images may have different graphing. 

      3. Move the sliders for getting a good contrast
Now, drag the black point input slider and the white point input slider (the black triangle and white triangle located directly beneath the histogram) inward toward each other until you can have a bright and color contrast look of the image. After you adjust the sliders, the image will have more contrast. 





     4.  Adjust the Midtone
Hitherto, we have moved the two extreme left and right input sliders. We will now move the middle input slider (the gray triangle below the histogram) which adjusts the gamma, or contrast, of the midtone values. Drag the middle input slider to the left to lighten the image or to the right to darken the image. It changes the intensity values of the middle range of gray tones and gives a more contrastive brightness quite naturally. 


     5. Neutralize the color
Select the Set Gray Point Eyedropper tool in the Levels dialog box (the middle eyedropper). Then click an area in the image that should be gray. That area becomes neutralized in gray, and the color cast is removed. 


     6.Get the final image and enjoy
After making all the adjustments, click OK. Voila! You have got your image with color and tone retouch
