### Example: Enhance Caustics

<span style="color: #272727">In this example, the caustic reflections on the yacht are enhanced after rendering using the Caustics Render Element. The yacht is selected using a </span>[Cryptomatte mask](https://docs.chaos.com/display/VC4D4EDIT/Masks)<span style="color: #272727">, and the Caustics effect is first subtracted from that object and then added back enhanced. This achieves greater fine-tuning of the caustic effect.</span>
