Just keep in mind that if you want to use this for Basic editing, make sure you use an adjustment layer, not a duplicate layer. The adjustment layer can be CS3's B&W layer, a gradient layer, or a hue/sat layer, for instance. It's one of my favorite editing steps - I really kinda like the subdued look in a lot of cases. I'm trying to learn to oversaturate color, but I just can't quite get there.... :-)
And you're welcome. It's kind of like partially desaturating an image but to me gives it a bit more contrast to use the B&W layer then reduce that. Not sure why. |
