<p>Thanks Andrew. <br> This is very preliminary.<br> I have previously used Fade luminosity in RGB. It works, but it also impacts on color. Guess its because there is no luminosity layer in RGB.<br> I tried Fade highpass Luminosity in LAB with an ugly result when changing blend to Overlay.<br> Out of curiosity, I tried Fade highpass Color. This gave me a beautifully sharpened B&W image. Perfect for blending in overlay. :) Don't ask me why yet, cuz I don't quite understand it.<br> Thanks for the link. Have browsed and looks very interesting. <br> Tom</p> <p>I tried </p>

<p>This could work for the "Snapshot" market (actually the biggest market). </p>

<p>Is the subject possible?<br> I use the LAB color space more and more, and I almost always sharpen in the Lightness channel - except when I need to use High pass to sharpen. I can't make it work on the Lightness channel only. I can sharpen the image globally in LAB using the high pass technique, but then I sharpen the a and b channels as well.<br> The difficulty is Overlaying the filter on the lightness channel.<br> Any ideas?<br> Tom</p> <p> </p>

<p>It works in the "sandbox"</p> <div></div>

<p>Ok,</p> <p><img src="https://www.flickr.com/photos/131720818@N02/16979192110/in/photostream/" alt="" /></p> <p>Darn!</p>

<p>Ok, not what I expected, but my post processed image is the Large photo attachment.</p> <p>Is there an "Upload for dummies" in the forum:)?</p> <p>Tom</p>

<p>Hi, Newbie here. Don't know what I did wrong, but my first attempt failed.<br> I'm asuming that 2014 in the thread title is a typo, and that this is a live thread.<br> Not adding a photo this time, just to see if I get through.</p> <p>And now I know why. I missed the confirmation bit:) (Forgivable newbie fault).<br> So, now I add the image again.<br> <img src="https://www.flickr.com/photos/131720818@N02/" alt="" /><br> Hmm, No image yet, but just in case it shows up, here are my comments:<br> Simple boost in color contrast and selevtive foreground sharpening.</p> <p>Tom</p><div></div>
