Chapter 5: Basic Touchup
74
The sharpen tool can help blurry photos look more focused.
For the best results, sharpen the focus of your photo last, after you finish all
other enhancements.
To sharpen a photo:
1 On the Touchup menu, click Sharpen or Blur.
2 Drag the slider to the right until the photo is adequately sharpened.
3 Click Done.
For best results with the sharpening tool:
■
Be careful to use the sharpen tool in moderation. Especially when
printing, a photo that has been over-sharpened has an unnatural, wooden
look.
■
Don’t use the sharpen tool on a photo taken in low light that shows noise
(from a digital camera) or graininess (from a film camera). The sharpen
tool will accentuate the noise or grain in the photo.
