Step Lines

-[* 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.

+[* black] Adjusting midtone contrast will increase or decrease the difference between darks and lights in your photo. You can see in the first image that there is a greater difference between the two than before adjusting the contrast.
+[* black] Darkening highlights is useful for darkening particularly light spots in a picture without having drawing too much attention to that spot in particular.
+[* black] The Lighten Shadows tool is used for lightening particularly dark spots. Spots that contain detail may appear solid black; lightening shadows can bring out the detail. Use this tool minimally, though, as black objects are usually considered "shadows" in a program, and they will be lightened as well.
