Hey Matt,

I’ve been following the strobist thread too.

But here is the link – the guy is amazing – his tut’s are wicked.

Joel Grimes.

Down near steps 5 and 6 is where he adjusts the skin contrast and controls the highlights etc etc.

I’m sure you’ll eat it all up better than I could.

Good luck!

Cheers,

Kris

Thanks for your comment, Kris. If you happen to check back, send me a link to that technique you were talking about. I’d be happy to check it out, and post it.

As someone who is trying to learn Photoshop on their own at the moment – this tutorial was excellent.

I will definitely try it out when I next get the chance and see what it does to my subject.

I just learnt a fairly good method using High pass filter and a graining/blurring effect.

Thanks very much for putting the time in!

Cheers,

Kris
