"HIGH-LOW EMBOSSING"

Explanation:
TUTORIAL

STEP 1 - HIGH EMBOSS, 40X40 OR 30X30 FOR EXAMPLE.
STEP 2 - LOWER EMBOSS, 5X5 FOR EXAMPLE. THIS LIGHTLY EMBOSSES THE BLUR.
STEP 3 - COMP #1. THIS IS WHERE YOU GET THE BIGGEST CHOICES. SO FAR, DIFF, MULT, AND EXCLUSION HAVE GIVEN THE BEST RESULTS, DEPENDING ON WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.
**OPTIONAL STEP**
STEP 4 - EMBOSS AGAIN, LOW EMBOSS, EX. 5X5
**OPTIONAL STEP**
STEP 5 - SHARP. DEPENDING ON THE PICTURE, I HAVE USED 5X5 TO 10X10. I DO FIND THAT TWO LOWER SHARPS WORK BETTER THAN ONE HIGH ONE.
STEP 6 - YOU CAN COMP IT AGAIN, OR LEAVE IT AS IS.
JUST ENHANCE TO YOUR TASTE. BRIGHT GIVES SOME GREAT RESULTS IF YOU COMP-MULTI.
