Curves is the answer!
Open up your image in Photoshop. Create a new layer for curves (look for the circle that is half black and half white and select curves). Choose your adjustments tab. Then click on the curves (mine is the third from the left on the top row). Place your curser in the middle click and drag down to darken the photo...pay attention to the background color. Now go get the brush tool and set your brush to black. Go paint to reveal your photo underneath.
* If you happen to go "outside the lines" you must start all over...just kidding! Simply go change the color of your brush to white and paint over the area you didn't want to lighten up!
