We have mentioned in our books and lectures about an underwater action from Adobe.  It seems impossible to find it on the Adobe website, so we have added it here, compliments of Adobe.  Be sure that once you have it loaded in your action's pallette, that you actually position your cursor over the words "color correct red" otherwise you are just accessing the folder.

Jack's Layers Action
Jack's Depth of Field Action
 This action is designed to save you time by automatically adding non-destructive adjustment layers to your Layers palette.  To use, open the Actions palette in Adobe Photoshop CS2, and click on the small black wedge at the top right of the menu.  Find the "Load Action" command and load this new action.  When you press the F12 key, this action will automatically add all the layers shown above. Note that when you select the Burn & Dodge layer, you should use the black brush tool to burn and the white to dodge.

The depth of field action is used with subjects that float above or away from busy backgrounds.  When this action is applied,  you will be able to vary the amount of focus from the foreground to the background.  Before you can apply this action, you must make a selection of the animal that you want to seperate away from the background.
