(If you don't take this step, the first original is what will show up without all your edits.) Photos will record it as an original, and that's what will show up as your desktop. Now move the edited photo back into Photos to the new album.This step isolates the edited photo from the original. As you finish editing each photo you want to use, drag and drop it onto the desktop. Do the same for the other goals you have. Right click on the new folder and choose "New Album." Label that album "Houses" or whatever fits your photos. Then create your albums in that folder.(Folders contain albums not photos.) Right click on "My Albums," select "New Folder" and label it "Screen Savers." To set up a number of albums, first make a folder to contain them.If you're only going to set up one album, then go to the left Photos bar and right click on "My Albums." Select "New Album" and label it "Screen Savers." Put all your goals photos in that album, or.Experiment with these tools and all the other tools too, just for fun, just to see what they can do for you.If that's not enough and you want colors enhanced, move the "Saturation" slider to the right too. If the photo looks pretty good, but is a little dull, try moving the "Highlights" slider to the right.You might want to then increase the "Black Point" a wee bit. If the photo has intense light and intense shadows, you can slide the "Contrast" slider to the left to decrease the intensity and add a little more middle.If the whole photo is too dark, move the "Brightness" slider to the right and the "Contrast" slider a little to the left to keep your middle shades. If it's too dark-go to the "Shadows" slider and move it to the right.If that's not enough, move the "Brightness" button a little to the left to darken it, and the "Contrast" button to the right to keep your contrasts.

This increases the level of blackness, which often has the effect of intensifying the colors, as well as shadows. It it's too light-go down to the "Black Point" slider and move it to the right.Start by looking to see if the photo is dominated by light, by dark shadows, or if it's well balanced.
