By swiping to the left, the picture will have less light and color but more contrast. By swiping to the right, the ambiance function will instantly add pop to the photo by brightening it, adding more color and removing contrast.
If you don’t want to mess with brightness, color, and contrast on your own, try the Ambiance function under the Tools screen. The Ambiance is sort of a “catch-all” function in Snapseed.
In the photo below +80 contrast was added to make the trees colorful and dark which draw the eye to focus on the white waterfall in the middle. Then scroll your finger to the right to add contrast or to the left to make your photo look more washed out. It will stand out more in the Instagram feed and will attract more likes and reposts.Ĭontrast is a great function to use if your photo looks washed out and you would like to add more depth to it. To add contrast, select Tune Images under the Tools screen and scroll your finger up or down until you land on Contrast. By adding more Saturation under Tune Image options and swiping to the right, the photo looks a lot more lively and dreamy. For example, let’s look at this photo of Painted Hills in Oregon. Just the right amount of saturation can make or break a photo. However, overdoing color and saturation can also backfire – the trick is to add color to the pictures without making them look too fake or edited. Posting colorless pictures on Instagram won’t draw the eye and will get lost in the feed. With a simple edit, you can enhance a photo to have the perfect vacation beach vibe in just a few seconds. Below is an example of a photo before adding brightness and after adding 90+ brightness in Snapseed. Once you select the Brightness function, swipe your finger to the right to brighten your photo, or to the left to darken it.
