    We love Gradient Maps, but they're just one of many different ways to color photos in Photoshop. What's your favorite way to color grade? Let us know!

      For colour grade : gradient map, colour balance, channel mixer. For colour tone : selective colour, LUTs. I knew this gradient colouring but the separation from skin tone using the RED channel was an awesome trick. Thanks Aaron...you are one of my most fav PS tutors. Love & Regards....

    I've been a Photoshop geek for over 10 years. I can't tell you how many times I've picked up a simple work flow technique from you while researching something else. Adjusting opacity the way you demonstrate here is a perfect example. Thank you!
