Step Four:
If you want even more sharpening, duplicate the High Pass layer to double-up the sharpen-
ing. If that's too much, lower the Opacity of the top layer. One problem with High Pass
sharpening is that you might get a glow along some edges. The trick to getting rid of that
is to: (1) press
Command-E (PC: Ctrl-E)
to merge the two High Pass layers, (2) click the
Add Layer Mask button at the bottom of the panel, (3) get the Brush tool
(B)
, and with a
small, soft-edged brush and your Foreground color set to black, (4) paint right along the
edge, revealing the original, unsharpened edge with no glow.
