Auto Correct The Lighting In Your Picture

Clicking on the Demo Picture will enlarge it so you can see it more clearly.

Open your picture in PSE (I am using PSE 3.0)
Crop it to your liking
Click on ENHANCE
Then pick AUTO SMART FIX

If the coloring still seems a bit off:
You can click on ENHANCE
Then ADJUST LIGHTING
Then BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST

(I used brightness/contrast because I took it with too much light – you will use whatever is more fitting to our picture/preference)

Then you will slide the brightness or contrast levels around until you get the effect you want

You can also use this feature to create your own background page with picture intact. Just slide the brightness and contrast to extremes

When you are satisfied with your project, don’t forget to go to FILE and SAVE AS
