three channels: hue, saturation, and lightness. Although you cannot

create or edit an image using the CMYK model, you can still split the

image into four channels: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black.

You can create a new grayscale image for each color channel; the

original image is not affected. For example, an HSL image is split into

separate grayscale images named “Hue,” “Saturation,” and

“Lightness.” Each grayscale image represents the percentage and

location of a color (such as red) or a characteristic (such as lightness)

within the image.

You can edit the grayscale images and use them to create interesting

effects or masks. You can then combine them again. If you split an

image into CMYK channels, you can then send the four grayscale

images to a printing service. You can also print CMYK separations

directly.

You can split images into RGB, HSL, or CMYK color channels regardless

of the type of color model (RGB or HSL) you choose as a display

preference.

Color channels give you increased image-editing options. You can

create a color shift by splitting an image into HSL channels, modifying

the Hue channel, then combining the channels. You can also use a

channel grayscale to create a selection.
