		<description><![CDATA[In the same composition, use  Select&#62;Color Range…to select the high-lights of the base image.  Be generous with the Fuzziness, as detail won’t be an  issue.  Copy the selection to a new layer (Command - J [PC: Ctrl - J]) and set its blend mode to Screen, which works kind of inversely from Multiply—blacks become invisible [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Anyone who’s used Photoshop CS3 (or prior) versions and tried to composite a human subject into an existing light setup knows that they eventually hit a wall with Levels, Curves, Color Balance and—even in desperate situations—Brightness/Contrast adjustments to match the environment.

		<description><![CDATA[Studio lighting can be quickly and easily dramatized by blending multiple layers.  Duplicate a layer with a subject by pressing Command - J (PC: Ctrl-J).  Desaturate the new layer, then adjust the Levels dialog (Command - L [PC: Ctrl-L]) to create  a strong contrast.  Now, apply a Gaussian Blur (Filter&#62;Blur&#62;Gaussian Blur) to the new layer [...]]]></description>
