Great tutorial Colin, way better than using the D&B adjustment tools.

I had a Wacom but ditched it when I got the iMac with Magic Trackpad, which I use with a stylus, but am not sure if/how I can use it’s pressure sensitivity to mimic what you were doing with the Wacom.

Very nicely done! You’re tutorials are the best vitamins! I don’t a Wacom tablet – but now I see why I want to! I love the Cafe!

In reply to joan. Camera Raw was only added as a filter in Photoshop CC, before that you have to open from Bridge

Fantastic tip! I appreciate you ! A question… I use CS5. Once I convert to smart objet, How can I send it to camera raw? What alternative do I have using CS5 ? I don’t have that option from Filter. Thanks a million !

Thanks a lot, Colin. This tutorial is eye opening. I’ve scanned lots of negatives of old photographs, of almost 40 years ago. With this dodge and burn technique I can edit the images and put them in a digital photo album.
I use a Wacom tablet for many years, started 15 years ago with the Intuos 3M, some years later the Intuos 4L.

Converting the merged layers into a smart object and using the camera raw filter to adjust tone and color was eye opening. I can’t wait to try this.
Thanks, Colin.

Thanks to this tutorial I was finally able to set up my new Wacom correctly so that stroke size varies with pressure. I had almost given up! Thanks
