Color filters

Use color filters to add creative color effects or correct color anomalies in your photo.

Filters are applied to your image from the Filters menu (destructive) or Layer menu (non-destructive) and mostly include customizable settings alongside general options. Non-destructive filters are called live filters, and, once applied, they can be identified as both a filter and a specific filter type by using unique symbols.
