:D Very nice, 4walls... if your experience is like mine you will quickly find yourself gaining improved levels of control (no pun intended) using PS curves in general. For me that was the most valuable part of the whole exercise...

I found that the tone masks really help add some snap to the picture.
Although I think it worked well here, not sure it will be for every situation.

Thanks for the input.
