Real World Image Sharpening with Adobe Photoshop, Camera Raw, and Lightroom

Just about every digital image requires sharpening, and images are too often sharpened badly. This second edition of the definitive book by the late Bruce Fraser teaches you all you need to know about sharpening in order to do the job right, including how to recognize an image that needs sharpening, how much to use, and at which processing stage to apply the sharpening. 'Real World Image Sharpening with Adobe Photoshop, Camera Raw, and Lightroom, 2nd Edition', written by Bruce Fraser's friend and renowned photographer Jeff Schewe, adds essential coverage of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw, since many of the key sharpening functions have migrated from Photoshop to those tools since the first edition of this book was published.

You'll learn how to:
- Recognize the kind of sharpening an image needs
- Balance the contradictory demands of sharpening and noise reduction
- Master the full arsenal of sharpening tools across key applications
- Sharpen part of an image selectively
- Create a complete sharpening workflow
