My new Photoshop sharpening action set makes it easy to obtain professional sharpening of your digital images.

It’s free to all and include sophisticated sharpening features. I engineered this toolkit to include the best features of commercial sharpening tools, like Focal Blade and Photokit Sharpener. Features include:

• Sharpen with Highpass Filter or USM sharpening.
• Sharpen edges and surfaces separately (or either alone). • Sharpen light and dark pixels separately.
• Generate masks using luminosity or color boundaries or a composite of the two. • Brush in creative sharpening/blurring.
• Blend If settings protect against sharpening highlights and shadows. • All sharpening is done non-destructively using layers.

Enjoy! Comments are welcome.

Also feel free to download my new sharpening tutorial.

A learning gallery should go online this weekend. It will include walk-throughs of the features in the TLR Sharpening Toolkit.

Thanks to all the beta testers!

Cheers,

Mitch

Mitch,

I get an error on your pdf file. Perhaps I have the wrong version of Acrobat Reader?
