Original on the left: +100 Clarity on the right. Everything has more definition and detail, but nothing looks too crazy. That enhanced detail is especially visible on the buildings in front. The medium-sized detail has been enhanced throughout the image (a bit hard to see at this size, but very obvious when you see it full size on your own images). You can see that even though I cranked the Texture all the way up, the overall tone of the image is fairly similar. In the image you see above, the ‘Before’ photo is on the left, and the ‘After’ photo on the right has the Texture cranked up to +100. For example purposes, here I’m cranking up the Texture amount up way higher than I normally would (to +100). When I want to bring out the texture in my image, but I don’t want it to mess with the overall tone too much (or mess with the fine detail areas of the image), I reach for the Texture slider. It’s great to have the flexibility of having both, but here’s a look at how using them can affect the overall tone of your image. One isn’t really better than the other, because depending on the image, Clarity might look better on one, and Texture might look better on the next. Both of these sliders enhance or bring out detail in the image, but they do it in very different ways. I get this question a lot, and so I thought I’d share how I think about the two how they are different, and when to use them.
