You can shoot a basic black-and-white image, use filters to
change how colors appear, or tone the image in experimental
ways. Can you see the potential for a lot of fun with these
tones?
In Figure 3-24, notice that to the right of Toning, there is a
row of 10 tiny rectangles with arrowhead pointers on each
end. The first rectangle is half black and half white. That is
the normal black-and-white (B&W) selection, and it has no
extra toning. Next to that you’ll see a golden-brown rectangle.
That is the Sepia toning effect. To the right of that is the
bluish Cyanotype effect. The smaller rectangles that follow
the first three selections are the other available colors for
toning. Each color has seven saturation settings available in
the little green bar below (next to Blue Green, 4 in
Figure 3-24). This
bar allows you to select the depth of saturation for each of the
colors. Blue Green is set to the 4th saturation position in
Figure 3-24, image 1.
