The Dodge and Burn tools are used to lighten (dodge) or darken (burn) areas of the
image. The Dodge tool and the Burn tool are based on a traditional photographer’s
technique for regulating exposure on specific areas of a print. Photographers hold back
light to lighten an area on the print (dodging) or increase the exposure to darken areas on
a print (burning).
