3. The model's hands look darker and cooler compared to the rest of his skin. To im-
prove that, grab the Adjustment Brush and, making sure that all the adjustments

boxes, and paint over the hands so that they are covered in the red overlay.
Deselect the Mask checkbox, and then increase Exposure to +0.55 and Temperat-
ure to +10.

With an Adjustment Brush, select only the pupils and set the Exposure to +0.40,
Clarity to +65, Sharpness to +35, and Temperature to -6.

ing, and Camera Raw is more than adequate for this. With the Spot Removal tool
set to Heal, work around the model's face to remove any obvious blemishes or
marks ( Figure 7.3 ) .
