Part of my SO YOU WANT TO BE A PHOTOMANIPULATOR series.

This teaches you about how to find the light source, why there are different kinds of shadows and how and when to use them, how to deal with double shadows, and when (and how) to use the Burn tool in Photoshop. Lots of examples!

Please consider faving and/or commenting if you find this helpful. Then I know it's worth doing more!

See my Tutorials area for the rest of my tutorials!
