Nevermind, I believe I found what I was looking for. Thanks!


I've seen some photos with FABULOUS eye detail...its more than just the eyes being sharpened and contrasted, I'm pretty sure. However, other than purchasing a specific action for it, I'm really clueless as to how to achieve it.

Can anyone guide me? I've got a rudimentary understanding of CS3 and can follow directions reasonably well.

Look at the similar threads at the bottom of the page, that works well for threads with good titles.

May I offer my own humble contribution? Whitening eyes (external link)

Not a tutorial for "pop" per se, just a method for nice clear eyes.
