Step Lines

-[* black] Adjusting light levels may not be enough to adjust all the darks in a picture, so shadows and highlights can help brighten things up.
+[* black] Adjusting the light levels may not be enough to even out all the darks and lights in a picture. To further lighten up the picture, you can adjust the shadows and highlights.
[* black] Adjusting midtone contrast is similar to contrast adjustments, and will increase or decrease the difference between darks and lights.
[* black] Darkening highlights is useful for darkening particularly light spots in a picture without having to high light it.
[* black] Lighten Shadows is used for lightening particularly dark spots. Caution must be used as black objects are usually categorized as "shadows" in a program and will be lightened. Lighten shadows will also not work if a spot is so dark that the camera was unable to catch any detail.
