Like many other Photoshop Elements tasks, there is more than one way to reveal detail in shadows.

You can use a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer to reveal hidden detail and texture in areas of your photos. To learn how, see Photoshop Elements: Reveal Detail in Shadows.
Another way to reveal shadow detail is to use the Shadows/Highlights tool under Adjust Lighting on the Enhance menu. To view a video tutorial on this tool, see the Reveal Shadow Detail with the Shadows/Highlights Tool lesson.
