Been on my mind for a long time. Time to let this one out.

Neat. But what if you have a photo where everything is in focus and you need to sharpen on both sides of the frequency? Would you just repeat the process for the other element (i.e., what would correspond to the out-of-focus background in the flower pic)?

Yes. And for every other element that you want to sharpen similiarly. Could quite easily become far too arduous for average use. I don't know anybody quite psychotic enough for that kind of labour. I did it all the way for each element once - and that was more than enough for me.

If you want to sharpen a single element to make it stand out (frequency contrast), go for it. Makes good exercise. If you do a lot of product shots against a solid background, might be worth working into your flow.

I've got some more tricks up my sleeve that I've been meaning to talk about. These tricks would be easier to work into a flow with various Actions and are based on the more common High Pass tricks.

Have I ever mentioned (dramatic pause) . . . Frequency ChOps?

Probably, and it probably went right over my head. For some strange reason, I was actually able to grasp what was going on this time. Still, I would like to eventually get a better handle on this stuff. This should make a good start, and the next time I have a photograph with a single element I want to sharpen, I will try this out.
