I keep coming back to this one.

Cutting to the chase (and I hope you don't mind).. have a look see:

"Gilded Lilies" - High Pass Sharpened

In Photoshop, I set the radius to 9.5.. and this before resizing. Which, in turn, probably added a lil' bit more sharpening (although, I did select Bicubic Normal for the resizing).

So.. you could probably be a bit more aggressive with the setting/sharpening. The image quality is that good good.

Here's the method I used (save that of the desaturating step) and for Photoshop:

"Selective Sharpening Using High Pass in Adobe Photoshop"

For Sharpener Pro:

"Selective Sharpening with Sharpener Pro 3.0"


Good good composition. Wonderful colour.

The stark black background really sets the stage for your focal subject.

And..

But, of course.. thanks for sharing this one with us.
