Thanks so much for this, it is really helpful. However I was wondering if anyone could help me? D:
here's a screenshot:
[link]

I cant find the Burn tool! I've clicked on Dodge there, as you can see. However, no Burn. I've used the prorgram's help, and it provides an example icon of what it looks like [the same hand as you screenshot'd] yet its just not there :/

you have to click on the little black arrow in the corner of the dodge tool icon.

I love this tuturial, and use it a lot, but I'm having a hard time making the waves on top of the water, like near the sunlit area. Is there any easy way of doing that?

Thanks!
