7) Adjust the original ‘temperature’ setting of 0 to -17. Setting the temperature setting to a negative number creates a slight blue tint to the image opposed to the slightly more orange tint when moving the dial to positive numbers. The blue tint works effectively with the image and the article as the article is fairly dramatic and sad, the colour blue is connoted with more mellow and sad emotions (a cold colour) compared to the happier warmer emotions that are connoted with the colour orange.

8) Adjust the ‘brightness’ setting from 0 to 27. Enhancing the brightness helps to highlight facial features and make it more appealing to the eye as it stands out against the background.

9) Adjust the ‘tint’ setting from 0 to 18. Applying a more enhanced tint will again enhance the richness and variety of the colours, giving them more depth.
