Description Difficulty level : Easy

Aim : To help the user understand the dynamics of levels adjustments, the consequences of changes made to the settings, and the advantages of Non-linear, non-destructive adjustments over its Linear counterparts (Brightness/Contrast).

PS : I'm a beginner myself, and i've written this from the point of view of an amateur. I hope its simple enough to understand, but if anyone has any queries, feel free to leave me a note.

Hope it helps!

Great tips. And yes, the brightness contrast can be destructive, but although it may seem simple, when used right, it can be a great adjustment to a photo.
