I am assuming these images are either jpg. or tiff. files, the first thing I
would do is use the Levels control and move the sliders in to where the
histogram starts, assuming there is clipping, then I would use the
brightness/contrast control as you mentioned, but that's just me.

Subject: Dark Images
I have some digital images that are dark and I need to correct them. It
would seem to me that I would go into the brightness/contrast control in
Photoshop and lighten them and at the same time increase the contrast.
Does this seem the way to go or are there other directions I should go?
I'm using Phitishop Elements.
Thanks,
