Learning how to do dodging & burning in Lightroom

I normally don't do doding and burning. But if you want to get good results from black&white, you have to learn how to dodge & burn. Instead of learning the skill in the analog darkroom, I decided to start in the digital darkroom with Lightroom.

This is my first attempt at the skill in Lightroom. I probably went overboard on some pictures. I also used localised clarity, contrast and sharpening. The extensive controls in Lightroom make it easy to manipulate parts of the image.

Below are the 12 pictures of my roll of TMX that came out of my Rolleicord. On the left you see the picture with only a curves adjustment, on the right you have a fully processed image.
The full resolution 25 Mpx images are available on Flickr and on Google+
