Description A quick demo on how the LAB colorspace works. Thanks to Justin Jew ( [link] ) for the permission to use his image for this example.

This is a very, very simple example of how using the A and B channels can create remarkably believable color changes and variation without the side effects one would normally get in RGB.

It also shows how the L channel can really bring out some amazing contrast boosts along with some neat sharpening tricks.

I hope you enjoy and that this is useful to you.
