Avoid unwanted colour shifts
Our ty_elements08.jpg starting image is over-exposed and lacks strong
shadows. You could try using Enhance>Auto Levels to create stronger
shadows and increase the midtone contrast, but this will make the building’s
yellow paintwork look a little green. By choosing Enhance>Auto Contrast you
can make the shadows look darker and the highlights brighter without adding
unwanted shifts in colour. If the automatic commands fail to do a good job you
can adjust the tones manually, as we’ll demonstrate in chapter 4.
