Photoshop is a large and intricate program, with multiple ways to accomplish what you want, and as such, it can be a little overwhelming to learn when you are first starting out.

Coming to you from PJ Pantelis, this great video tutorial will show you some fundamental tools and techniques you will need for almost every photo you will ever work on in Photoshop, including layers, masks, adjustments, and more. The important thing to remember is that there are multiple ways to do just about anything in Photoshop, and as long as you keep basic principles intact, you should work with whatever makes you comfortable when you are first starting out.
