Photoshop Tutorial - 2 Steps to Enhance Shadows and Highlights

This Photoshop tutorial will show you an incredibly effective way to enhance shadows and highlights within your digital images. You can create very interesting effects by using more prominent levels adjustments, or create subtle effects by using more slight levels adjustments. This tutorial does everything in a non-destructive way, which allows you to tweak the shadows and highlights at anytime.

Shadows and highlights help add more drama to an image, which is a simple way to bring the viewer into the image. The perceived dimension in the image is also heightened as the shadows and highlights are increased.
