My friends image adjusted with LAB color in photoshop

This is not one of my images even though I would live to claim it. It was done by a good friend of mine and the whole reason that I have posted it here is to show what can be done if the image is changed to LAB color and then an Apply Image command to bring it into the LAB mode.
Here are the steps.
1. Open the image in photoshop.
2. Go to "Image", "Mode", "LAB Color".
3. Then go to "Image", "Apply Image".
4.Then with the Apply Image window choose
Layer: Background
Channel: LAB
Blending: Multiply
(You can then adjust the opacity to the color that you desire. I left it at 100% just to show the dramatic effect that this would have on the image.)
5.Press OK and then in "Image", "Mode", RGB or CMYK which ever you need for web or print.
