How to work with Underexposed Photos

How To Tips · Photography · TutorialTags: Lightroom · Photo Editing · Photography · PhotoshopI remember the first time I used manual mode in DSLR  camera, many were captured as underexposed photos (low light/ dark image) or overexposed (more light/ white image). But luckily I had captured these images in RAW (.NEF in Nikon) format and not JPEG.Note that there is difference in capturing images in RAW and JPEG formats. It worth capturing images in RAW format even though it takes more memory. The reason is images captured in RAW format can me edited (post processing) using photo editing tools like Lightroom or Photoshop, the way you want to and this is not the case with JPEG images. RAW files will contain all the information and JPEG files are compressed formats of the same image. When the image is compressed there is loss of information or data and there is no way to recover the lost data in the image by these image editors. If you have captured an image which is in RAW format and is underexposed then you can easily edit it using Photoshop and you can recover the photo by retrieving the hidden information in the photo. Follow the following steps to recover an under exposed photos:
