Description

THIS IS NOT MY PICTURE - please see the artist here
[link] He is new on DA and deserves a great welcome :)

I am just trying to show him the benefits of Unsharp masking and noise removal. Any other comments and suggestions from anyone else are greatly appreciated.


Dude, I took yer armageddon skies, GREAT PIC... and done some stuffs to it to show you
how much better you can make it look. Firslty, I removed the noise with Imagenomic Noiseware.... Go to their site and DL a copy.

Then i pushed up the sharpness (unsharp Mask) to 180% with a radius of 3 and threshold 0) It brings some noise back, but check those clouds!!!!! and then... i did the noiseware thing again, just run it on its default settings (landscape)

Finally bumped up the red value by a few percent, added a larger border and banged a west rand name on it. Maybe you dont like it.? But if anything, look at the definition unsharp mask gives the clouds. OF COURSE this will only work with an already great picture!
