Photo editing involves taking an original photograph and modifying it in some way to create a new photograph. Some examples include adjusting lighting, adding color or removing/adding objects from the photo. Photo retouching involves removing or modifying the elements in an image that are distracting or undesirable in some way such as pimples on a face.
We here at at SLR Lounge have become quite the fans of photographer and retoucher Zoë Noble, and she has released a new retouching video focusing on the micro dodging and burning component of the workflow. Like many retouchers, she also uses two separate curves adjustment layers with an inverted black layer mask as an added safety net in case the retouch goes too far. The way she uses the curves adjustment layers is what sets her method apart. 2ff7e9595c
