well well, this is one a great shot by sarju..and I have tried to highlight the sadhu here with a filter which works only 50%.First cropped from top and bottom

1) extracted Mr.Sadhu thru extract filter
2) pasted him in a new page with black bg
3) Now the extract filter diod not work well so a lot of clone stamping fro m the original and other nit bits had to be done.
4)desaturated the image by 10%
5)sharpened it twice
6)wanted a focus on the face with piercing eyes to highlighted his face
7) levels decreased
8) framed it and added a note..

Is it ok..?????

Lighten shadows - 21%
Unsharp Mask - 20% and radius 20%

I added a frame and used the burn tool to lessen the over exposure in the hair.

Unfortunatly, using the lighten shadows tool has given the image some extra noise, but its something that you can easily remove (i'm too lazy to do that!).

This was when the monkey came into my room in the Yoga ashram on the banks of river Ganges in Rishikesh.

Well I found out that you have oxen along the pathway on the right. Very interesting to find them in the shadows. I lost some interesting drama in the sky to bring these shadow details up, but a small price to pay. Hope you do not mind!

This photo shows me in my element.
In the background you can also see the gujjar house on the meadow, where I had taken shelter during the rain. For a complete story look at my previous photo

I rotated the image and added some sharpening.

Seems to help.

With Adobe PE2 I gave a little bit of red colour with the tones modification.
I added more of green and yellow for the saturation.
