Today I am engaged in a specific task, which involves light and natural retouching, as well as primary work with color, particularly its toning.
Toning is a crucial creative element, but it's essential to consider the technical aspects of the photograph to avoid color distortion and unwanted effects. There are various approaches to toning depending on the goals and characteristics of the specific image.
During toning, attention is paid to colors, the type of photograph, the distribution of light and shadow, as well as the subject of the frame. In my case, I used conventional toning with the addition of cyan hues in the shadows and yellow tones in the highlights to achieve balance.

Before and after:
The tasks I accomplished through toning:
1. Creating a more saturated and balanced color in the photograph, which is pleasing to the eye.
2. Drawing attention to the model by creating contrast between the skin and the surrounding environment.
3. Adding a creative element to the photograph, giving it uniqueness and mood.
Toning is an interesting process that depends on your experience and taste, and only they will help you choose the right toning for a specific image or series.
