I use this little trick to quickly “enhance” photos for printing. It won’t work for all pictures, but it’s generally an easy way to make your pictures look awesome with 2 steps. Simply duplicate the layer, and change the blending mode to overlay. This will generally make the colors in your photo bolder and provide great print-outs.

I know it’s not much, but I hope you find it useful 
Just come across your podcasts great stuff, hope you keep them up nice and clear and I like the way you quickly go through a re cap by re doing another image.

Here’s a page with an intro to ColorSync.

Just open the image, then click on the second drop down box, and choose “Generic CMYK” (or “Photoshop Default CMYK”) from “Output”
