You&#8217;ll see whether the Red, Green or Blue channels are most dramatic. In this case, the blue channel (Ctrl-3) is the most dramatic.<\/p>\n<p>So we press Ctrl-A to select all, then Ctrl-C to copy. Press Ctrl-` (to the left of the 1 key) to return to full RGB view, then Ctrl-V to paste a new layer on top.<\/p>\n<p>In the blending mode, choose Luminosity. Press Ctrl-E to flatten the layers. Press Ctrl-U to adjust saturation, and desaturate accordingly. Finally, adjust the Levels manually as you see fit to bring out shadows.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks also to <a href=\"http:\/\/rames.blogspot.com\" target=\"_BLANK\">also-my-colleague-Rames<\/a>.
