The document describes editing images in 4 stages to improve focus and visual interest. Stage 1 involves cropping, adjusting colors, clarity or filters to make a subject stand out. Stage 2 adds graduated filters or adjusts saturation to further isolate the subject. Stage 3 removes unwanted elements or uses tools to enhance reflections or details. Stage 4 finalizes colors and tones to make the overall image more eye-catching. The goal is to guide the viewer's eye through selective editing of hues, contrasts and other properties.
