I've been playing around with lab mode in photoshop and thought I'd record some actions to share. These are just for some fun colour effects. Nothing too extreme, there's a lot more that could be added to them :)
I've only been able to test these in Photoshop CS2 so I can't say if they will work in other versions. They will not suit all photos and will work best on large size images, ie straight out of the camera. On smaller pics you'll get some interesting results, just not the ones intended.
I've included on action which doesn't use lab but belongs with the others because I think it's funky.
If you use these please let me know what you think and share your results. If people like actions I could record some more. I think actions are a great way to learn new things, you can pull them apart step by step and change them.
