Hi David

Here is the workflow for that particular reprocess:
  • Open file in PS6 - You now have the Original Layer
  • Copy Original Layer as New Layer 1
  • Apply Shadow/Highlight to Layer 1 and set Opacity to 67% with Blend Mode as Normal.
  • “Ctrl Alt E” to create Layer 2 from Original Layer and Layer 1
  • Apply Topaz Detail “Micro Contrast Enhancement “to Layer 2 and set Opacity to 33% .
  • “Ctrl Alt E” to create Layer 3 from Original Layer, Layer 1 and Layer 2.
  • Apply “Topaz Adjust 5, HDR, Light Pop Smooth” to Layer 3.
  • Set Opacity of Layer 3 to between 33% and 67% (to personal taste) with Blend Mode as Normal.
  • “Ctrl Alt E” to create Layer 4 from Original Layer, Layer 1, Layer 2 and Layer 3.
  • Apply “Auto Levels and adjust Opacity to taste.

Cheers

Dennis
