A week isn’t worth having unless I have time to visit some of my favourite sites on the web. One of these is by David du Chemin.

You’re working on a colour image with a monochrome filter on top. So moving the colour values around underneath that filter – either with temperature or with the channel mixer (Black and White Mix) – will change the tonal values you see in the resulting image.
