How is it possible to make such adjustment manually?

I tried to copy the image as an alpha channel. Then I inverted it and played with levels until there was more or less good difference between lights and darks. Then I made the alpha as selection and lightened the selection on the original image.

The result came out weird. Similar to the Adobe’s filter and very different at the same time.

Take a look at http://www.tnphoto.com/tutor_c2.html But IMHO Shadow/Highlight beats any manual adjustment.
