Tools on the right-side panel
The right-side panel is where all the tools affecting the look of our photographs are, and in the following subsections, we will learn what each of them can do.
Histogram
Just like with the Library module, our default view starts with Histogram, but this time, it is one of the tools to change the look of our photo, not just a window with information. If we hover our mouse cursor over the histogram, we will notice that from left to right, Histogram is split into five distinct areas, as follows:
- Blacks
- Shadows
- Exposure
- Highlights
- Whites
This can be seen in the following screenshot:
Figure 5.5 A
Figure 5.5 B
Figure 5.5 C – Adjustable Blacks, Shadows, Whites, Exposure, and Highlights
The mouse cursor changes to "left/right" arrows with a bar in the middle when we hover over the histogram. We can now adjust five major areas directly...
