Dodge and Burn with more control painting with soft light.
Filed under All PhotoShop, Photo Effects, Photo Retouching

You are now ready to darken and lighten, i.e. burning and dodging.
Get a brush with a soft edge and not too high of an ‘opacity’ and put the FOREGROUND color on BLACK to darken/burn, and on WHITE to lighten/ get detail.

As the blending mode suggests this happens in a ’soft’ fashion and lets you easily add a layer mask in order to get rid of some spots gradually and with full control.
