Scott Bourne absolutely nails a list of 10 tips to help us all get the sharpest possible photographs. He’s highlighted 10 things that just about anyone can remember. Including my favorite …
10. Use the right amount of post-processing sharpening. Many beginning digital photographers are unaware that you need to use more post-processing sharpening for printed images than you do for images displayed on the web. If you’re printing on photo paper, adjust the image on your computer monitor so it seems just a bit too sharp on the screen. This is usually the right amount of sharpening for a print.
Scott says he knows the list isn’t “comprehensive” but it’s a pretty darn good start if you ask me. Do you have a sharpening tip you’d like to share? Let us know in the comments section below.

Not just one tip from me, but instead an entire blog post! By coincidence I happened to blog about this topic only yesterday – some similar items covered but maybe on or two additional items in my post that may be of use to people. http://www.crossprocess.co.uk/?p=383
Skip Scott Bourne’s post and read Gavin’s instead. Scott’s stuff is Photog 101 material.
Thank you Gavin for your information.
This forum and blog make me realize how I have to learn about photoshop and it’s possibilities.
