Default Interpreting Histograms

Came across this article about histograms. By looking at histograms, you can already tell a lot about the picture. HTH.

thanks for sharing, JD!!! the histogram will give you a lot of information already about the exposure quality of the picture...what it cannot tell you na lang is your focussing and composition...

Dito ako nalilito sa histogram. Bakit meron shot na OK pero nasa left pag in-adjust sa right magiging pangit? Kabaligtaran, meron nasa right pero pangit pag-adjusted sa left?

Thanks for this great post!

The histogram is not an adjustment indicator, but a representative graph of how much tones you have between black (left) and white (right).
