Creating a Black-and-White Photo

Black-and-white photos have a timeless quality that works well for a variety of subjects.

1. Open an image in Single Photo View, then open the Edit Panel in the right panel.

2. If necessary, expand the Color section then click on the Black & White button to desaturate the photo.

3. When the Black & White button is selected Mylio Photos displays additional sliders to fine-tune your photo. The Red, Green, and Blue sliders reference tones from your color image to control luminance. They do not add or remove saturation.
   • Red – The Red slider increases or decreases the luminance of red tones from the color image.
   • Green – The Green slider increases or decreases the luminance of green tones from the color image.
   • Blue – The Blue slider increases or decreases the luminance of blue tones from the color image.
   • Add Color – The Add Color slider allows you to bring back saturation from the color image.

4. Open other editing adjustments to improve Tone, Details, and more to create depth and dimension.
