then 
I guess I aimed too high because I felt I had enough experience with level adjustments to look for a bigger challenge. For example, I've scanned hundreds of images using both a slide and normal scanner and often these require level adjustments. But in the end I decided to make my task easier and chose the following three images to adjust - original first:
then 
Brightness +65, Contrast -50, Saturation +20, Lightness +8
then 
Brightness -50, Contrast +88, Saturation +18, magic tool wand sky and brightness -35, contrast -50
then 
Saturation +46, then I adjusted Brightness and Contrast but I don't have specifics

You did a good job Jay in correcting the shadows in the photo thus making all of them usable/showable. I do have a question though Jay - how did you remove the shadow across the face (person on lower right side) without the tone being uneven? Thanks!
Jay: Good job on the shadow picture. Yes do tell how you got rid of the shadow. We will learn a tool next week that it s possibility, but this is great. The toad photo is awesome and your face on the hiking photo stands out. On the last photo a lot of color (green particularly) was brought out by light and contrast!
I"m also wondering how you achieved removing the shadows from the face. I find that really impressive.
Sorry I missed this inquiry. Well, I suppose I removed it but not very well. First I used the magic wand to select the shadow area on face. I then increased the brightness till my skin looked somewhat normal colored. Then I increased the red and adjusted the green and blue. Maybe a little more tinkering, but I quickly (after 4 tries) realized it was a bit out of my league.
Thanks for posting how you were able to do that! It came out really well, escpecially since it was something that you haven't done before.
