"Darken only" seems pretty straightforward, but I have been managing to get the same surreal result every time I do it.
I’m using a solid-colored second layer to try to bring color into an original image. Instead of this color just appearing in the lighter areas, the ENTIRE IMAGE becomes tinted with that color, and that happens every time, with every image, and no matter what color I use. Here is an an example:

(No, the pattern hasn’t changed, I just took little samples from a big image and didn’t line them up perfectly.)
I’m not doing anything fancy here; I wouldn’t know how. All I’m doing is creating a new layer, adding the color to it, and using the "Darken only" control. Can someone please tell me what I’m doing wrong? This is making me crazy, LOL!
