Digital BW, The Print

Now Carolyn, this is a bit deep for me. ;-)  I have been working with Photoshop for 3 or 4 years, but as time is always limited I have never become very proficient with layers, painting, mask, etc.

The crazy thing is that as a Board member of the Palm Beach Photographic Workshops, I have the opportunity to meet all of our visiting instructors. I guess I have no excuse not to take a few workshops on Photoshop.

Thanks, I will give your technique a try as well.

  Hi Mike,

  Sometimes I like to dup the image layer, set the blend mode to multiply,
  create layer mask, fill layer mask with black and then paint layer mask with
  largest soft brush with white, then detail with various sizes... erasing
  with black, adding with white.  Then play with the opacity of the multiplied
  layer. I find I get less strangeness than from using the burn tool on
  certain images.
