  2. Photo Editing • Step One: Make a Copy • To find Picture Manager • Start/Microsoft Office/Microsoft Office Tools/Microsoft Office Picture Manager • Everyone has this program • Basic edits only, nothing fancy!

  3. Editing Photos • Brightness and Contrast • Color • Crop • Rotate and Flip • Red Eye Removal • Resize/Compress Pictures

  4. Brightness and Contrast • Can help lighten when you’re too far away for the flash to reach your subject • Can help darken when you’re too close and the flash overexposes your subject • Start with AutoBrightness • Brightness – the lightness of the colors • Contrast – the difference between the lightest and darkest colors • Midtones – the colors in between (what contrast doesn’t fix)

  5. Brightness and Contrast

  6. Color • Enhance Color button – fixes colors using white as a benchmark • Amount and Hue – work together to affect the base color • Saturation – move to the left to make image black/white, move to right to intensify colors

  7. Color

  8. Crop • Aspect Ratio – If you’re going to print the picture, this is very important, it keeps your image square • Crop handles – use for fine adjustments

  9. Crop

  10. Rotate and Flip • Rotate Left/Right – click for 90º increments • Use “by degree” for smaller changes • Flip Horizontal/Vertical – make a mirror image

  12. Red Eye Removal • Doesn’t work on animals! • Save other changes before attempting to make red-eye changes

  14. Resize/Compress • A must for sending pictures over e-mail or for uploading to websites • 3 MB is great for printing, but overkill for looking at images on a computer screen • Make a copy first, you can’t zoom in after you’ve resized • Document – 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600 • Web – 640 x 480 or 448 x 336 • E-mail – 314 x 235 or 160 x 160 • Original: 3.14 MB 3000 x 1996 • Resized: 309 KB (0.3 MB) 1024 x 681
