Dodge and Burn: Two tools that can take your images to the next level

Photoshop is a complex program that contains more potential uses than any person could ever figure out.  You may be amazing with photoshop, but a year from now you'll look back and laugh at some of the methods you used to use.  About a year ago, I thought I had it all figured out and that I was editing my images to their full greatest potential.  Man was I off!  I bet within a year I will be putting these current edits to shame, but for now I'm pleased with the results.
