I've essentially stumbled on a couple revelations regarding post-processing sharpness adjustment recently - a combination of things I've seen in videos, read online and heard in seminars. All have added up to really change the way in which I not only view the importance of post-process sharpening, but also the how, when and where of doing it. It seems to have made a huge difference in the look and feel of some of my photos, in what I consider to be a very positive way.
My plan is to blog together some of these thoughts, but before I manage to find the time to do that, I'm very curious as to how you all use sharpening in your workflow? Do you do it at all? If so, what tool(s) do you use (Lightroom, Nik Sharpener Pro, Photoshop - and in PS which tool precisely)? When do you sharpen - towards the beginning, at the end, whenever you feel like it? And when you do, do you start somewhere and adjust, do you have set formulas for certain types of photos, or is it always a feel thing?
Really curious.
