  • A better way to do contrast stretching on a properly exposed image is to control things via (possibly inverted) greyscale copies of layers applied as layer masks to themselves. Then use (whatever the Photoshop equivalent to Gimp's threshold tool is) to clip out extremes to get the same effect, stretch contrast of the remaining section, then restore the clipped regions by blending with the inverted version of the threshold layer mask. There are several interesting variations on that technique.

  • @Ormaaj Thanks for the comment, I'll have to give that a try. Have you done a video tutorial on this- I'd love to see it... sounds like a bunch of steps. The reason I started using this click/drag method was it worked a lot faster with my workflow- but I'm always looking for other options!
