Tips & Warnings
If you move the "Brightness" slider to the right and the "Contrast" slider to the left, you will add more sharpness and depth to the picture. Those elements situated near the front in the picture will stand out against a darker background.
Make backup copies of pictures before you edit them. You can later delete those unwanted pictures to save computer space.
