Photoshop's desaturation and grayscale features don't always produce the vivid effect we are looking for. This action makes use of a more advanced technique and gives you more control over the look of the final image.[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif] [/FONT]

B. Running the effect[/FONT]
[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif][/FONT]
Open an image. Avoid working on lower compression JPGs (I recommend working on 16-bits images). Run the action. A duplicate of the original image will be created.

You will be prompted to change the "Pin Light" blending mode in the Calculations window (the 'Pin Light' blending mode produces a neutral effect similar to Photoshop's grayscale).
Deploy the mask options and manipulate the mode of the 3 channels. Try not to pick a channel that increases the overall image noise. In addition, you can fine tune the overall effect by changing the opacity, in the Calculations ********
Finally, when the action finishes you can adjust the opacity of the "BW layer" from 100% to 0% to manipulate the degree of desaturation.
