Rescuing Poorly Exposed Photos with Photoshop Levels

Whether your image is underexposed (too dark), overexposed (too bright), or just washed out in a hazy low-contrast fog, improper exposure can ruin an otherwise good shot. Even though many basic photo-editing programs provide “Brightness” and “Contrast” controls for tweaking exposure, I prefer to use Photoshop’s Levels tool, because it provides more precise fine-tuning, and it gives you separate control over the shadows, highlights, and midtones in your photo.

You can access the Levels tool in Photoshop under Image > Adjustments > Levels — but I don’t recommend doing it that way. Instead, I always prefer to make a Levels Adjustment Layer. By creating an adjustment layer, you preserve the option of revising the adjustment later or changing its opacity. AntiCrop "Uncrops" Your Photos by Extending the Picture's Background.
