Gosh, thi is inviting...what does it mean to saturate with blacks? I like the look! #1379702

I re-edited above so it should make more sense. In CS5 if you shoot in RAW you can adjust the 'black' slider to increase the saturation. It's normally around 5 or below at default but I crank it up over 30. Hope that helps...have a great day.
