One of the more highly debated tasks is how best to lighten and darken portions of an image. Some ways are more favorable than others. Like many tasks in Photoshop, there are numerous ways to arrive at the end result. For example, selectively increasing the saturation of a field of flowers, or other colorful scenes. The combination of the Vibrance adjustment and a pressure sensitive pen delivers unprecedented control against over-saturation and thus clipping. Speaking of adjustments, we get a new one in CS4: “Vibrance” gives the user greater control over the saturation of color, preserving delicate tones, such as those found in foliage. Then, using a pressure sensitive pen, you can selectively apply that adjustment to the areas that you want with a great level of control. Now you can apply adjustments as Adjustment Layers with a single click and a slide in the Adjustment panel.

Whether they are to make a simple shift in tonal vale, or a more sophisticated color correction, adjustments (and their associated layer masks) are a staple in my workflow. Rarely does an image cross my desktop and not get some sort of adjustment. Of particular interest are the new Adjustment and Mask panels. New, panels enable us to apply our enhancements more intuitively and in fewer steps. Gone are the use of the word “palettes” and their multi-click functionality. This new frame work offers a tab-based interface with self-adjusting panels to keep our tools out of the way so that we can stay better focused on our images.
