Digital BW, The Print

The other really useful too re- dodge and burn w/ masks is the gradient,
which I find especially useful when dealing with old negatives with light
leaks, streaks, etc.

Thanks, Todd, for the concise yet complete explanation- it will help me even
though I thought I knew how to do it!  I for one would like to hear more...

I prefer to work with adjustment layers, layer masks, and curves. It's a
little complicated at first, because you need to understand curves,
selections, and layer masks, all at once, but once you get it, doing it is
cake.

...Painting black on the mask makes it
so your curve will not affect that area, painting white makes it so it will
affect that area, grays allow for partial effect.

finer
points of this process...
