Adjusting Hue and Saturation

Hue and saturation describe the color values and intensity of an image. Picture a color wheel like the one you used in art class, with all the colors of a rainbow arranged in a circle. When you change the hue of an image, all the colors are shifted by the same degree around the circle.

You can adjust the hue and saturation of a selected area or an entire image. Follow these steps:
