Bloody excellent. I have always used the high-pass filter to sharpen globally. I have never used, or thought to use, targeting or zoning to sharpen individual element layers. Typically I have sharpened as: shift+Ctl+U then Linear light, then High-pass, then Black Mask, then paint white to select where sharpening wanted. From now on though, I'm goign to use your sharpening method. So much better. Cheers!

[@jethrostebbings]

I love comments like this! It's really hard to come up with anything original in editing now days so I am glad I could add value! be sure to follow - Im hoping to edit other peoples images - would you be keen?

[@Kexchoklad373]

@@jethrostebbings Regarding editing other people's images: Are you still looking for images to edit? If so, I could provide some RAW files. It would be interesting to get a different perspective with regards to editing them. Cheers :)

[@jethrostebbings]

Of course! Dm me on Instagram

Is it me you want to DM you?@@jethrostebbings

[@pbziegler]

I am a very advanced PS user. Teach now and then. Always looking for new ways to do things. This idea of sharpening at different layers in the image is brilliant. Gonna start following you and stealing your stuff now and then. :-) I would leave you a tip but my bank just informed me that someone used my card number and they are issuing a new card. So next time. Promise

[@jethrostebbings]

what a lovely comment Phillip! No need to tip and feel free to steal as much as you want! but yes, do follow because i have a few more tricks up my sleeve!

[@AndyK986]

What a brilliant concept, I will definitely be trying this out 👍🏻. Many thanks for sharing.

[@leshawkins1]

Excellent ...have shared a link to my cam club members. Thnx.

[@martinlennon4673]

Quality sharpening technique, thanks 👍

[@OBPhotography695]

So helpful! thank you so much. I never realised you could do this!

[@jethrostebbings]

Happy to help!

[@davidbell1462]

Love the tutorial, thanks for sharing your method.

[@jethrostebbings]

You are welcome David, hopefully it was something new - although I know how good of a photographer you are so I can only imagine not :)

[@DominikMarczuk]

Awesome techniques, thank you! I don't have Photoshop, but I was able to replicate this in Affinity Photo and even in Darktable, taking away the need to go into Affinity Photo in the first place.

[@jethrostebbings]

Thank you for the kind comment! I would love to experiment with other software in the future!

[@photokiakotos81]

I still believe High Pass is extreme for sharpening, but I liked the techniques you use afterwards. For sure I will try to some of my images to see how it goes. Thanks.

[@jethrostebbings]

Always good to try things out again with a different mind set! high pass isn't my only method either - well - Modern cameras and lenses are so sharp as it is that any sharpening is something that needs heavy deliberation in itself. good luck and thanks for the watching and commenting!

[@jamied7643]

Really great tutorial, more please.😊

[@jethrostebbings]

More to come!

[@AnitaAML]

I loved it!!!!!

[@jethrostebbings]

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it! Are you a regular photoshop user? Im trying to figure out what viewers want to know or need help with?

[@scotty4418]

excellent tutorial and really effective

[@jethrostebbings]

Thank you! Hope it will help!

[@gechaves2]

very good tutorial. Thanks a lot.!!

[@jethrostebbings]

glad you liked it! be sure to follow for more!

[@sundeepsembi6091]

This was superb . Thank you

[@jethrostebbings]

You are most welcome! Happy editing!

[@mwe5398]

Very interesting. Hard to see in the video but I’m surprised you aren’t introducing halos since your high pass settings are very extreme.

[@jethrostebbings]

Thank you! Im really happy with unveiling this method as almost all KZbinrs and landscape edting courses never talk about this - instead they worry about avoiding the issue in detriment to how far you can actually go in your editing! I will work on getting better A/B results in the future though! Have a great time editing!

[@KP_Macro]

Really nice, thanks!

[@jethrostebbings]

Thank you so much! Did it provide value? Do you see yourself using the technique? Sorry for all the questions - but as I am new to this I want to ensure I am providing something good! (I already know to speed things up)

[@KP_Macro]

@@jethrostebbings Absolutely - I had seen a couple of videos about doing something similar in Lightroom using the dehaze slider. That is, using masks to limit dehaze to areas of the image that are closer and leaving the haze in the background. But LR masking is sometimes so imprecise, and I like to do all final edits and cleanup in PS. This is very useful for implementing the dehaze concept with sharpening, and I'll definitely be trying it. Great stuff, already subscribed and looking forward to more.

[@rogerberry1323]

Thanks, Jethro! I'm going to try this for myself. As others have said, the video doesn't let us see the pop you've added. A download link for the actual .psd file would be nice. Also, I noticed that all the links for your gear lead to the same Amazon listing for a D850. Thanks again! I'll be checking out your other videos later in the day.

[@jethrostebbings]

thanks for the heads up about the links! I will def include files in the future! Thank you so much :)

[@gilcarag274]

If you apply the high pass filter to each individual layers by brushing on a mask, why do you have the artifacts on the edges? I don’t get it. Can you explain, pls? Also by converting each layers to a smart object, you can come back to the high pass filter and adjust if need be

[@jethrostebbings]

Hi there, well, when you brush in the sharpened layer via the mask, you might go over the edges unless you are very accurate and stop long before the dark or white haloing - but I find it quicker to just run along the edges with the mask.

16 BIT ?? i can barely do 4

[@josdenis3684]

Not a secret anymore now, is it? 😊

[@richardglobisch64]

The only thing sharper than your photo is your style.

[@jethrostebbings]

i just copied your profile pic :)

[@DickHoskins]

Very clever.

[@jethrostebbings]

Thanks man, I really aim to provide ideas and concepts that are new and no other photographers provide (I really am a PS nerd). The only issue with that is that I have 4 more videos left to provide absoslutey new concepts but thats about it. Ha ha. Not a good content model at all :) Glad you liked the video though, Hope it helps with your editing!
