Hi folks, I recently started using Tony Kuyper's luminosity masks to postprocess my photo's.
If one mask is selected in the channels-dialog, the image looks like a bw-photo - you know that.
Ok, so one mask actually exactly looks like I want the image look like in bw. How can I make the image look like this one mask?
I suspect that the "process" is maybe just one mouse-click, but I am totally lost at this.
Can one help me here please?
Thanks very much!

Thanks Guy, I take the risk of appearing stupid now, but what I want is a final image, that I can save&print, that looks like one of my lights-masks, in other words, a bw image that has same dark and bright areas/tonal range as the one mask. Is that possible to get?
Thanks very much!

Dietrich,
After making sure the eye is "on" just for the mask you want, simply copy this channel (CTRL-C)
and paste it as a new layer onto the original image. I'm sure there are other ways, but that method suits me.
