Volume 4 - Dodge & Burn, vignettes, soft edges
and new 1-Click Sharpening Actions Kit
Many photgraphs benefit from subtle dodging or burning but the dodge & burn tool in Photoshop does not produce realistic effects. 1Click Actions Volume 4 comprises a series of 1Click actions to add subtle shading or lightening to various parts of the image.
The actions are not intended to create "special effects" merely to balance out and enhance the tonality of the image.
Volume 4 also includes a comprehensive set of 1-Click adjustable sharpening actions both full image and selective sharpening. Simply click the sharpening action suitable for your image - no need to worry about complex settings, simply run and adjust afterwards if necessary. A brief guide to which action is suitable for what type of image is included.
This is a sample of SoftDarkEdges. Often just a subtle darkening of the edges highlights the main subject.
 
Particularly effective with BW images, this is the DarkenCorners Action.
You can ajust the strength as required or run it more than once for greater effect.
