        Burn Tool
        It darkens the pixels without affecting the colors. By using this tool, you can create greater contrast by

        white patches and dark shadows. Burn Tool can darken the white patches, while Dodge Tool can be
        used to lighten up shadowy faces. To use the burn tool, follow the given steps:

                                                                                2
                                                Adjust the size and hardness.

               select the Burn Tool.
