Selective Sharpening Tutorial

Rohirrim

Well I had some fun making up the Frames Tutorial so I thought I'd make up one more. Selective sharpening is one of my favorite methods of avoiding sharpening artifacts in Blue Sky or Blurred backgrounds on my bird shots.

Any feedback would be appreciated- i.e. Does it help you? What could I do to make it more understandable?

Thanks,

Thanks for the idea Steve. I use masks all the time but for some reason have never thought to use it with sharpening.
