Such a good teacher you are! For the first time I actually understand levels and hue/saturation. Thanks much.

CHRISTOPHER, Absolutely. Photoshop is no substitute for proper technique while photographing. Although it can help rescue a botched shot in many ways, you’ll always be better off if you’ve actually “gotten” the shot to begin with.

PHOTOFOLIO, Actually the Levels and Curves adjustment layers are performing different jobs in this instance. We’re using the Levels dialog to define where the black and white tones begin and Curves to adjust the weight of each in the overall appearance of the photo.

Am I wrong or is your curves adjustment layer just doing the same as your levels adjustment layer? why not make an S-curve to avoid clipping off information? And why using both levels & curves if one of the two can suffice?

That was a great first tut. I think what i have realized is that your original pic still has to be decent.
