Fix Hot Spots & Highlight Blowouts with Selective Color in Photoshop

Dang! This may be one of the most genius uses I've discovered for fixing Hot Spots in portraits and Color Grading Highlight Blowouts in landscapes.

You heard that right. How in the heck can Selective Color fix a highlight blowout or portrait Hot Spot? Pretty easily actually. Watch and learn!
