hi all
i’m familiar with using the dodge/burn tools. i’ve used the new layer/overlay mode/gray fill/paintbrush technique for nondestructive burning and dodging.
however, i like the ability to modify local contrast that being able to burn or dodge highlights/mids/shadows selectively gives you. is there a nondestructive way to locally dodge or burn specific tones?
being able to dodge highlights in particular is a wonderful technique in the bw darkroom, using bleach. i’m sure there’s a way in photoshop.
i remember (almost) a technique using a snapshot, curves for increased contrast, and the history brush but can’t seem to get it to work.
thanks
