Re: [photoshop-beginners] Re: Will Layers Improve Sharpness?

i was not suggesting that an out of focus image can be made better by sharpening it, what i am saying ..that ok..best example i can give, i make a layer in photoshop, exact duplicate of original, and then i go to set it to"screen" the entire layer, which lightens it up, then i will copy that layer if i need to make it a bit lighter and lower the opacity from there..so when i do this, i can see a difference in the beginning to where nothing was done to the two layers i add....so this is where i am left with an image that is somewhat less than it was to begin with sharp wise..and i then take it into another program entirely, after saving as a jpg, and sharpen it...i dont like the sharpen parts of the photoshop, as i find it doesnt clear it as much as it just emphasizes the outer linings, and when i sharpen in the other program, i dont have to also blur certain parts of it..if that makes sense

maybe i go the long way...i dont know

I have uploaded 4 images to the folder to show the differences between Unsharp Mask, High pass, Smart Sharpen as well as a final image with tonal adjustments.

The settings for the filters are a part of the file names. Each filter was added to the file as a layer adjusted; and then deleted. No actual harm came to the photo during the process. I did however bother billions of electrons... ;)
