I’m traveling today, so I don’t have time for a full article this morning. Instead, I’ll leave you with this cool link to a innovative use of Photoshop’s color match utility to improve the tones of your photographs. The technique requires having a photo and a digital copy of a painting that generally reflects the color scheme in the image. The Color Match utility changes the tones within the photo to match the (generally richer) palette in the painting.

It sounds weird, but in some cases it leads to some interesting results. In others, the photo just winds up looking goofy. Still, it’s definitely something worth playing around with. Check out the full tutorial and a bunch of examples here (via unfocusedbrain).
