In-Depth Information
Figure 7-26. The Sharpen tool isn't meant for sharpening whole photos, but it's great for
sharpening details. Here it's being used to touch up the details in the middle statue. (The red
arrow points to the circular cursor.) Approach this tool with caution: It's super easy to overdo
it. One pass too many or too high a setting and you'll start seeing artifacts.
