Keith (M) Posted January 9, 2015 Share #2627 Posted January 9, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I do most of my processing in LR5 (Windows 7). The image is then opened up in PS (I have CS4) where I make any final changes and resize for chosen output (mostly for the web). Having flattened the image, I make a background copy then Filter/Other/High Pass. Set the resulting slider to 8.7 then click OK. Picture goes horribly grey but worry not! In the Layers drop down box, change 'Normal' to 'Soft Light' - sanity is restored. Now for the piece-de-resistance. Grab hold of the greyed-out square in the background copy layer and whilst holding down the Alt key, pull it down to the mask icon (the one to the right of 'fx'). This creates a black square alongside the grey one and the high-pass sharpening effects disappear from the image. Click on the paintbrush tool and change to a suitable size. Make sure the foreground colour is white. You can then 'paint-in' the sharpening effect on the desired areas (for example, I avoid sharpening skies, clouds etc). After painting in the effect you can alter the amount of sharpening with the opacity slider. Flatten the image and job done. Works for me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkassenkunde Posted January 10, 2015 Share #2630 Posted January 10, 2015 James - A fine output. Good exposure. colors as they should be. Red halos a glow. All in sync. Now let's see some more! Thank you for this compliment! As I said before, this film is not that easy for me to handle. I also have to check my light meter, as many pictures on this roll seem to be underexposed. While trying to find the right exposure, I get those blue or magenta hues in the shadows. Anyway, I will buy some more rolls and continue my tests:) Here two more shots: Welcome, dear visitor!

Sparkassenkunde Posted January 10, 2015 Share #2633 Posted January 10, 2015 After scanning I processed the pictures in Lightroom. I changed the exposure (shadows, lights, general exposure), applied some noise reduction and at last some sharpening. I never change any color channels separately. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

philipus Posted January 10, 2015 Share #2639 Posted January 10, 2015 I've been trying to get the hang of Photoshop and I'm a bit lost with the unsharp mask. I use USM mainly in two ways. The normal way - with a fairly high %, a low radius (<1 typically) and a low threshold - will sharpen the image evenly and punch up (or exaggerate) grain. This is the sharpening I normally use just before finalising an image (for web or print). The other way is to invert the % and the radius, i.e. set a low % (around 10) and then move radius to very high, around 100. This will give an effect similar to what Clarity does but much more softly. It increases the contrast in the image (though I'm not sure if that's what happens technically; it gives that effect though). I find this type of sharpening useful on some images where a bit more bite is necessary. Other contrast enhancing tools (like Contrast, Levels or Curves to name a few) are not as subtle, in my experience. Philip Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
