Ballet Dancers illuminated by several CAM16 local adjustment spots as if spotlights.

Overall boosts in lightness and contrast; a spot with CAM16 lightness set all the way down to black out the green tarp.

BTW @jdc I noticed Contrast Threshold (J & Q) will clip from black to white if you raise it too high with a sufficiently high Contrast level.

PS @jdc Sorry I jumped the gun on your whole “one week interval” idea…

PPS @ jdc Overall these CAM tools seem to work at a better dynamic range than other of the CAM16 implementations. I could easily process an entire photo using mostly only the local CAM16 spots.
