Hi. I'm trying to increase the contrast of the footprints for a friend whose father in law passed away recently, but even using blend modes, contrast, levels, curves, etc., it looks terrible.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Several iterations of the Calculations command (by trial and error) and then Topaz Clarity. Not pretty, but higher contrast.

You gave me an idea.
I opened it in camera raw inside of Ps, and used the adjustment brush pushing the clarity slider, and it worked ok.
