Edit certain parts of photograph

New Here ,
Mar 16, 2022 Mar 16, 2022

I'm looking to edit a certain portion of a photograph. Say you have a photograph with two people, one of the individuals is too light and you want to darken them up or the clothes that they are wearing. How do I edit just that individual and not the rest of the image?  Or say I have a photo of the ocean with someone standing there, how do I brighten up the ocean but not touch the person standing there? 

 

Thank you!

There are several different methods to do what you want to do.  I suggest you first learn about selections.  When you select an object in a photo, only the portion of the photo that is selected will be affected by whatever edit you want to make, e.g. select a person and make them lighter or darker.  Take a look at this HelpX Article for the basics.
