First try at sharpening with High Pass Filter

My first attempt at using PS CC and the high pass filter to add some sharpening....

First image is out of camera and out of Lightroom, second image is after High pass filter in PS CC, and camera shake reduction.

I am thinking I better concentrate a little more on PS CC! :)

I have found the high pass filter more effective on things with larger elements...what some would call a low frequency image. Here you want to emphasize the hair, which are very small elements or high frequency. There may be better sharpening tools in Photoshop for that. I'd use Topaz clarity.

That is really such a noticeable difference. I have so much to learn about PS and PP work. Well done!

I was actually blown away by how much sharper the effect ended up making the photograph too!
