Hey unmesh , i need to clarify something to you and all photosop users out there , in the minute 25:50 , when you said there are 2 ways to dodge and burn , the 50% gray layer has wrong informations that got carried falsely along the way , the technique of creating the 50% gray layer is meant only when using the (Dodge & burn) tools , not the brush itself , because you cannot use the dodge and burn tools on a transparent layer , therefor you create the 50% gray layer , but the brush can paint on transparent layer so there is no need for the 50% gray fill .
i hope this reach you.
thank you so much for all the knowledge you shared along the years , i have been following you for so long now and your videos changed my artistic life forever.

the grouping is what made blend modes click for me: darken modes drop out white, lighten modes drop out black, and the contrast group ignores 50 percent gray. once you know which color disappears you can basically guess the right mode before trying it

This sounds incredibly childish of me, but you are truly a photoshop god. It's as if you made the software yourself. Love how enthusiastic you get about teaching, as well. (:

I like to use blending modes when using things that brighten and darken because it's often actually whitening and blackening and I like to keep a bit of color

Blown away with the final special blend modes. Fabulous explanations on what each mode does with great examples of them in use.
