Dodging and Burning in Photoshop | Tuesdays With Lauri

In this week’s “Christmas Edition” of Tuesdays With Lauri I decided to take a look at dodging and burning in Photoshop. In the video below, I show you guys how to use curves for dodging and burning, and talk about the things that you have to keep in mind while doing it. I hope you enjoy the video and as always, if you have any questions, just shoot me an email (lauri@slrlounge.com) or leave a comment below.

Merry Christmas everyone! :)

    yeah thats a great way, but the better way is to copy the original RAW with different exposures and set the masks on that because when you use curves you loose some details.
