For the short time I've been here I have noticed an interesting phenomenon, the amount of terminology and abbreviation among pro's and semi-pros is quite staggering. I myself, whilst not quite a noob at photoshop or photography, am having quite some trouble with some (read many) of the abbreviations....01-26-2009, 08:44 AM -
I've had issues trying to use burn and dodge to cover up facial blemishes instead of using the healing brush. Most of my images are of non caucasian people. When I try to dodge on a person skins it ends up mutating into weird colors like orange or red even though the complexion is fine.

Hi all,
recently im got deeper in the photoshop retouching area, i been looking on some high end retoucher videos and i saw them all using quite same techniques, but one thing is really different, there are some retouchers using the dodge and burn tool to shape and contour the model...12-04-2009, 04:08 AM -
Just wanted to ask the pro retouchers here their preferred Brush settings using a Wacom Tablet to perform Dodge and Burn.
Thanks in advance for your advice.06-16-2007, 08:49 PM -
I see a lot to people write that they used dodge or burn. What settings do you use on the brush. Granted it is case by case but are there "standard" settings that you like to try first. Sort of like unsharp mask, we all have a starting point.
Thanks.07-10-2004, 06:25 AM

I'm trying bring myself up to speed, and reading as much as I can. There is a lot of "terminology", (actually more abbriviations) that do not come to one immediately.
Terms like "D&B" or "DNB" are used for "Dodge and Burn". (the "DNB" didn't make sense to me right off, but I get it)
Is there a "RP Glossary"... yes, I did look but found no reference. -
Re: a "Retouch Pro" glossary?
No, but perhaps not a bad idea. Perhaps an enterprising user will start one over in the blogs section.Learn by teaching
