new for me

[back alley]

as you might know i am just learning how to use photoshop, on my own from practice and reading and some great tips found here on our own forum.
i just read this article and tried it and, while somewhat subtle, i quite like the effect.
this may be 'old news' but i'm excited.

Very interesting. This is news to me too, I've been using Photoshop for ages but I only scratch about 5% of it's functionality.

Thanks for the link, Joe!

Joe,
This is a good tip, I have used it on low contrst BW images to give a little more punch to faces in a portrait.

i also appreciate it! i did not know about this little trick; it indeed helps without messing up the highlight/shadow details.
