I thought I would complete our little series on sharpening by taking a look at how best to use Smart Sharpening in combination with a Smart Filter and a Smart Object. Are you feeling smart yet? You will be… 
In this screencast I will show you how to take a different approach to Unsharp Mask by using the “HiRaLoAm” sharpening technique with Photoshop. If you are a fan of USM then give this variation a try. When used on the right image and can really make it pop!
Today, we are going to look at sharpening jewellery with the hi-pass filter. This is one for all of the wedding photographers out there, who are probably knee deep in digital albums and slideshows right now. So hopefully when it comes rings, tiaras, bouquets, and other details this technique will prove to be invaluable for you.
In this updated screencast, I show you the power-user secrets of sharpening in Adobe Camera RAW. If you have already watched this screencast then give it another go, because I somehow managed to lose 3 minutes of video between recording, editing and uploading it. So in this new version, I show you in full how to make the most of sharpening your RAW images with a little help from Spike the Pike!
