Just wanted to see what everyone else is doing as far as setups/actions in Photoshop for putting the finishing touches on your renders.

Doesn’t need to be a tutorial or anything just a short description of what you use and why?

Thanks in advance…

I tend to use exposure + gamma, saturation, brightness/contrast, and curves. Sometimes photo filters, eg warming, are also nice. Also niel blevins specular bloom work flow is great, as long as it isnt over done.

And unsharp mask, but also not too much. On pics for the web (around 640 to 800 px wide), I generally use 70% with 0.7 pixel radius. Pixel radius higher than 1 results in ugly high contrast edges.

Then basic color correction (color balance) to make the image warmer/colder.
