about the finer points of this process, but I highly recommend you 
give it a try. As you work the image, keep making your selections and 
creating a separate adj. layer for each one, and give it it's own 
curve manipulation, then perfect the selection through the mask. If 
you make a mask you don't like you can trash it separately from the 
curve and vice versa, or you can trash them both together and start 
again, so the control is immense.

Todd,

I had done a lot of reading and exploring of photoshop a while back 
and forgotten some of the discoveries.  Catching Ron Harris' site 
reminded me of the layers.  I have printed out your directions, it 
makes sense, in opposition to dodge/burn, & will explore it more over 
the next weeks.

Thanks for the considered & detailed responses.

Cleavis
