Basic Operations
Understanding Contrast
The graph peaks gradually for images in which contrast is balanced. The
graph peaks on both sides but sinks in the middle for images with a large
difference in contrast and low amounts of mid-level brightness.
Understanding Color Balance
Distribution of color intensity is displayed for each color in the RGB
histogram. The right side of the graphs look similar for images that have
White Balance adjusted well. If only one color is lopsided to the left, that
color is too intense.
