Brightens and Adds Texture on Images

Bright and Defined. The Clarity preset applies its custom tone and light settings to achieve a defined, clear look. You can see this in the example above, as some elements in the After photo are more evident. The background now has more lush tones, along with the woman’s skin tone, turning into a warmer shade.

Texture also arises as the preset reinforces its contrast settings, by increasing it along with the blacks and whites. This means creating more brightness and balance with darker shades as well as enhancing texture in the photo’s mid-tones.

Intensifies Warm Tones

Bold colors. The example above shows how the Clarity preset boosts warm tones. This means having deeper pigments on the yellow and red elements as seen in the image above. The preset simply saturates these tones, creating a clear cut focus on the yellow leaf as well as leaving the background elements vivid and steady.

Applies Fine Color Adjustments

Rich textures. The Clarity preset intensifies certain color pigments to create a clear, solid look on your images. In the example above, you can see how the preset applies adjustments and saturates green tones. The result is having brighter deeper shades to the leaves and the green elements of the woman’s top.

The preset also applies its modification on warm tones bringing more warmth to the woman’s skin tone, bringing out rich brown highlights on her skin and her hair. For added texture, the preset increases sharpness, and clarity, bringing out more visual texture on her hair, and the lavender flowers.

If you love taking outdoor photos with rich textured elements, this preset is worth a try! It will add to your Instagram feed’s uniquely bold and balanced vibe!

Clean Focus. In addition to the preset’s adjustments on colors, the Clarity preset also saturates blue and aqua tones, giving it more brilliance and depth. The example above shows how the adjustment takes place: The pastel blue wall becomes brighter and now acts as a contrast to the woman, placing more focus on her and emphasizing the black colors of her outfit.

This creates a clean coherent look and can be easily used for your fashion images to give that focus on your daily OOTDs. This preset can definitely give your Instagram feed and Pinterest boards that chic, modern and fresh look.
