And a few other very specific artistic effects and overlays.

Bedlam:
Here's a very quick mini-tutorial on contrast masking:

1. Duplicate your original image (Layer > Duplicate Layer)
2. Desaturate the duplicate layer (Image > Adjustments > Desaturate)
3. Invert the duplicate layer (Image > Adjustments > Invert)
4. Change the Blending Mode of the duplicate layer to Soft Light
5. Apply some Gaussian Blur to the duplicate layer (Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur). Start with a small radius and gradually increase it until the detail starts to become clearer.
6. If the shadows have become a little wishy-washy, add a Levels adjustment layer at the top of the stack (Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Levels) and boost the blacks.

For a more dramatic effect, you can use Overlay instead of Soft Light in step 4. Job done!

I'd like to be able to claim credit for this technique, but I learnt it from Tim Shelbourne's Photoshop Photo Effects Cookbook.

I've also got a tut for candlelight somewhere - I'll see if I can find it.
