A lot of photo editing focuses on adjusting the shadows and the highlights of an image, as they are the extremes of a photo and thus, what the eye is drawn to. That being said, a normal image consists mostly of midtones, so knowing how to select and edit them independently of the shadows and highlights is a crucial skill for any photographer. This excellent video tutorial will show you how to select and edit the midtones of an image in Photoshop.
Coming to you from Anthony Morganti, this great video tutorial will show you how to select and edit the midtones of an image using Photoshop. No doubt, we spend a lot of time and effort on the shadows and highlights; in fact, most editing programs set us up to prioritize them with the way controls and sliders are set up. That being said, if you look at the histogram of most photos, you will probably notice that the majority of the tonality is actually concentrated in the midtones, and thus, they deserve equal attention! It is the sort of little thing that can turn a good photo into a great one. Check out the video above for the full rundown from Morganti.
