Dear Sam, I expect a very accurate mask already exists (although it will need working on to make it perfect) in the channels palette. About 6 weeks ago I posted quite a comprehensive note on how to produce such a mask, which a few people told me they had saved as they found it so useful. Maybe somebody might have it, if appropriate? If not, I'm perfectly happy to go through it again - Martin also describes the process in his book but, for a really good resource on this topic, check out 'PhotoShop Channel Chops' by David Biedny et al. Happy New Year to you all - been struggling to keep up with the traffic of late. Still got 837 ProDigs unread...
