I tried it on a similar image and I obtained similar results, it's a function of edge halos produces at the borders of bright objects due to bloom, CA and sharpening. What you appear to have done in your method was to severely enhance the contrast and then alter the hue relationships to make these differences more apparent. Interesting effect, I'd say next time record it as an action as you go then you can use the transformation on any other pic and see what it does, might be interesting. The medications I don't know about, we'd have to exchange scripts I guess :-) Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
