Burning and Dodging

Burning and Dodging Assignment. This is one technique used in the darkroom and it is very time consuming but very fun to see your results. Burning is when you give a selected part of your image more time to burn in more light to make that selected part darker. Dodging is used if a part of your image is to dark and you need to use less time for that selection.
 The sky is just a little too dark in this image.

Good sky but the church is just a little muddy, to pop out the church I put in a higher filter.
This one is my favorite because it has a high contrast on the church yet you can still see a sky.

This was the mistake of burning the sky in for too long.


Pictured above was the original picture as you can see there is no sky showing so I had to burn in the sky which you will see in the other four images at the top.
