What is Tone?

Tone is lightness, brightness or value of a patch in a photo: dark tones correspond to shadows, light tones correspond to bright or highlight areas.

What is Contrast?

Contrast is something that photographers use to attract the viewers attention to their subject.

This is a photograph that I had already taken but thought it had a perfect range of colours in it for me to edit and play around with it a little. I began changing the Hue and saturation by making it black and white but I  still thought it needed to be altered more. I then moved onto changing the brightness and contrast where it started to enjoy the image more but still wasn’t happy with it. I then moved onto the black and white adjustment tool where i slightly changed around some of the settings and the blacks and the white really began to stand out on the picture and where much bolder and was happy with the final edit.
