Contrast
Enhances or decrease the distinction between the light and dark areas to make the image appear more vibrant and dynamic or softer and less defined.
Hue
Change the hue to shift the entire color spectrum of the image. For example, adjusting the hue of a red object might make it appear more orange or magenta or blue.
