Luminosity Masking in Photoshop

Here's a link to a series of blogs by Tony Kuyper, that I was pointed to last year while on a workshop in Santa Fe.

About ten years ago he invented a Photoshop masking process that generated continuous masks based on the luminosity of areas of an image.  It looked intriguing, but I confess that I never followed up, as I'm pretty content with the Photoshop adjustment layer controls that I use at present.  Also, his methodology has a definite learning curve. However, I joined distribution list, have been following his progress, and think that I will try it out and see if it makes much difference to the images that I print.
