its 2 am, im lonely, im sad, and im scrolling through my subscriptions and find this video, I subscribed 3 years ago when I wanted to learn more about photoshop, and the first line you say is ""i want to remind you each moment is a new moment and that you can turn it around." and thats exactly what I needed to hear right now, even though this is a photoshop tutorial... thank you
♥️ get some rest my friend were happy you're here sending virtual hug 🤗🤗
@@juliusrendon5936 thank you
Well... Did you learn it? The Photoshop...

You've helped my business so much. I was a complete PS novice and you taught me a lot. I was overwhelmed 😪, and now I can navigate edits fluently. Thanks Unmesh

This is probably the first time I leave a comment here. I'd like to thank you for what you've been doing all these years to spread knowledge. I mainly do street photography and other types of photos on the smartphone, just to train my eye for spotting opportunities and to improve composition skills, and of course I rushed to try out this sharpening method right away this evening. It really works. Thank you, good sir, and God bless you, too!
You did it again. Make me stand up from the couch and run over to my PC to try this trick and be completely amazed about it. Do these type of videos ten times a day and I will start calling you my personal trainer because of all the physical exercise I will get from walking between my couch and computer. Thank you as always.
This is such a fantastic channel. This particular lesson struck a chord with me after coming home from a vacation with a few pictures I thought were unusable until I used these methods. Thank you for your constant stream of inspiration! You're genuinely my favorite PS teacher on CZcams by far!
Bro this is not just one video of yours I’m talking about but honestly , you are an amazing teacher , and the way you do these tutorials it’s just soooo helpful and it’s like you were made for this purpose, the way you teach it’s just a blessing to learn from you , please don’t change and stay same, god bless you brother , please keep us teaching like this 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Clear, concise and informative. I appreciate you going through what all the effects do and how they work with each other.
I learn so, so, so much from you. even your little "aside" moments are packed full of useful techniques. For instance, the history snapshot - always wondered if that was possible. And your 10 seconds of motivation on this video - reminding me that I can turn a day around at any moment... just beautiful. Thank you for everything and have a wonderful day.

Hi Unmesh and thanks for Your always inspiring channel! I have to say that this method is very nice but, You can obtain same results by simple Hi-pass, You just have to put the Hi-pass layer in vivid light instead of overlay... You can also use it in linear light for an even greater sharpening effect. I'm involved in astrophotography and I always use these kind of sharpening tecniques. If You create several layers of Hi-pass with a decreasing kernel (blur) sizes one on top of each other, You're actually make what we call a wavelet sharpening function. Anyway many of Your videos inspired me alot in the creation of new techniques to be applied on astronomical photos so... Thank You very much and keep going!
Thank you. I tested the action with 2.5 Gaussian blur (from the default 3) and I like the result. Subtle but the before and after comparison shows a very good improvement.
I can’t even begin to describe how helpful this trick is. I do a lot of photo editing for my clients and I never realized this type of sharpening was an option! It works so well! Thank you! ❤
You are the master. Thank you for taking something complex and explaining it so clearly. I feel as if I struck gold when I found your videos. Keep 'em coming!
You're an amazing teacher at this. I recently discovered your videos and they are the best tutorials I've come across.
Absoluetly stunning, never thinked about this process THAT way. Thank you for sharing!
This sharpening technique is now my go-to method in most instances. Holy cow, this is probably one of the best sharpening techniques I've tried. THANK YOU!
My mom was a photographer when I was growing up, back in the days before photoshop. I've always done photography as a hobby, a passion project. I wanted to update my skills so that I could take advantage of the technology available today vs. What was available when I first learned how to properly use a camera. I picked up the PS 2020 Class In A Book, and while I did learn a lot, nothing has compared to the videos you put out. You break down not only what to do to get the desired results, but why you use each technique and tool and why those techniques work together for the effect in one instance, but may not work in another. PS's book takes the "Do it this way because we said so" approach. They should bring you on to consult for their company.
You are truly a PRO. also happy belated teachers' day. you work wonders, my friend. i will definitely be using this
There are others besides myself who get excited when we see a new idea such as this. Thank you Unmesh, your support is a guiding light to a community of followers.
that's truly said . how about we get to know each other more .😘😘
Thanks so much, I used this on a job today. I worked great. I find your lessons to be clear, helpful and fun.
I appreciate your sessions. I was so intimidated by photoshop but now I love it thanks to your videos . Thank you!!🥰
My goodness your positivity is beautiful. Thank you for your intros.
Couldn’t ask for a better teacher! 🙌🏻💥 thank you for all the knowledge and motivation!
Thank you Unmesh, I use Photoshop practically everyday and your tutorials have taught me so much!
Unmesh, I could listen to your videos all day without following any instructions 😆😂 so entertaining and motivating :) thx for putting so much effort in it!
Wow, I'm super impressed with this channel. You give *GREAT* photoshop advice nonstop. I'm starting to think you actually work for Adobe Photoshop
Thank you so much for this tutorial. This is a great technique... with no obvious halos! :) Your continued efforts to help us learn new things, are greatly appreciated.
I used this techniq in product photography, result is amazing
If you convert to greyscale before you use high pass, you loose a lot of detail.-> if two different colors next to eachother have the same colorvalue (same greyvalue when converted), you loose their contrast/edge -> which causes it to not be picked up by the high pass filter.
I just used this video tonight to sharpen a portrait for a relative's memorial. It worked very very well. Thank you so much for sharing your vast knowledge. God bless.
I watched this video ages ago and knew there would be a time that I would come back to it. This evening was that time, I went out and got lots of exposures of the moon before it got dark, then used a median stack in Photoshop to remove all the ISO noise, and then a Vivid light sharpening, and the results blew my mind! Thank you Unmesh :)
From one teacher to another, you absolutely have amazing didactical skills. Keep up the engaged and awesome content!
If Unmesh will have a course of learning Photoshop, I will definitely buy it. By the way, I want a tutorial of Unmesh's hair style so I can ask the barber to cut my hair like him. 🤩🤗😊
Truly appreciate your support, Carl. Thank you so much! PS: Whenever I go to a new barber, I show him my older profile picture. That helps a lot, haha.
Pretty sure the Unmesh hairstyle is created entirely with a sharpie.
@@jesse_cole pretty sure the Unmesh hairstyle is created entirely with a curves adjustment
Pretty shure his barber does not touch him with a Tweezerman either LOL
its created with vivid light
This video is not only useful and maybe sometimes a life saver but it also shows real, real expertise and cleverness. Wow! Greetings from Europe and a big Thanks!
Honestly one of the best tutorials out there. Thank you so much !
Thanks PiXimperfect, always inspiring and clever tutorials
Sempre a ensinar de formas tão simples e fáceis de perceber. Parabéns.
My brother...you are one of the best things that has ever happened to this world. I cannot pay you for the wealth of knowledge you share so freely. God bless you real good.
Thank you for being so awesome! I learn from every single video of yours that I watch.
I used this technique with scans of 1980's Poloroid images. These images aren't sharp to begin with, and are now much better. Thank you.
I can't express how happy I am to have found your channel :') Thank you sooo much for sharing your talent!! 🤗❤️
I have been using Photoshop professionally for many many years! This is an excellent tutorial delivered at the perfect pace with the perfect level of description. Well done and Thankyou for teaching an old dog new tricks 😁
I love your videos. They are my go to sources for Photoshop techniques. I like that you explain everything and how you get right to the point without a bunch of chitter chatter. It doesn’t hurt that you also have a beautiful accent. Thank you.
Spot on 8:30 pm ! That’s Unmesh 🔥
I adore you so much ;; You are so, so helpful and the world is just a better place with you in it helping everyone around you
Thank you so much, Kelpy :)
Thanks for this! I have always appreciated your energy and kind eyes! Thanks for learning with us
It's not very often I see something that makes me not believe my eyes, but when you blurred and things got _sharp,_ I was totally flummoxed. I've been using High Pass for years, and think it's the bees knees, but I've got to give this a go. Thanks so much!
My hero! Now I have to try this method, since I'm using HP for the past 3 months on my work and it's been absolutely perfect, especially since I made an action and I have a macro set for it.
The girl in the image is Antonia, a romanian "singer" (if anyone wants to know).
We keep creating!! 👏👏👏👏👏❤️ In my world 🌍 CREATIVITY is My Identity 🆔👌
Thank you for your support!
I’m not an editor but my boyfriend is. Long ago, I took an art class that taught me how to use photoshop back with CS2. I learned from a textbook how to edit stuff step by step. One of the things they taught was how to sharpen stuff. It used Gaussian blur to fix motion blur of a taxidermied bear. I remember adjusting the numbers in Gaussian blur in greyscale and then like magic, it was tolerably in focus. I’ve spent YEARS trying to convince my boyfriend that you can use Gaussian blur to fix motion blur, which he is convinced is impossible to fix. With your tutorial, I can finally prove him wrong. So thank you for validating me!
I am so grateful for you and everything you have given to us photography community.
WOW! just wow.
Me getting ready to do a lil' dance: 💃
Unmesh: I'm going to skip the intro because I'm so excited.
Me: 👩🎓📝
Great tutorial Unmesh! Step by step. I can only contribute by watching all adverts in the video to the end.
Hi, I follow you from Sardinia (Italy) and even if I don't understand English well I have learned a lot of things from your videos.
You are great, keep it up
Another option : duplicate layer, filter>high pass, then set layer to overlay. And your pic will be sharper. You can change sharp intensity by adjusting radius in high pass option.
Thank youuu
This appears to only work on photographs, like the examples in your video that are fairly sharp, to begin with (or very slightly soft). If the image is noticeably blurred, I have found that this technique does not do much to correct it.
If My shoot was out of focus. It’s impossible to brought it back. Don’t waste your time on it. Just made sure your shoot is more than 3 or set up with stacking focus on customer set up.
You are absolutely amazing! Thank you SOOO much! Worked like a charm. Thank you for breaking down all the steps in such an easy step-by-step understandable manner and explaining as you go, so that students can understand the logic behind the method and apply it as we go. I'll definitely be supporting your channel with a donation... absolutely worth it!
This is soooooo useful! THANK YOU!! This action just improved a ton of photos I have. :D
That is literally reverse common sense😂
Haha, that's an interesting way to look at it.
I just found this video, it absolutely just changed my work flow. Thank you..
I don't care who you are as and editor. Either it be 20+ years or think you know Photoshop like the back of your hand, you will always learn something new. Especially from Unmesh channel. As an editor myself since the early 2000's, some of the techniques you show folks, if they really pay attention actually opens many doors when editing far beyond the tutorials you present them. Great stuff brotha!
bro u saved my motion blurred wedding photographs !
I recovered dozens of photos by watching your tutorials.
Thanks a lot.. Specially I'm a beginner photographer.
I tried that Sharpen action - INSANE how good that is!! - thanks so much.
Did it right now with a beetle, which was quite blurry due to the shallow depth of field of the makro lense and short distance. Blew my mind! Thanks a lot!
Thank you for your work Unmesh you are simply the best teacher here on CZcams !
The best photoshop tutorial chanel I ever had.❤️❤️❤️. Every day I'm learning something new from you... Thank you very much.
This is awesome. I have a shot I missed focus on by just a bit, but it's well within range that this fixed it! I can't tell the difference between the in focus shots and this edit. Thank you!
Actually, I used to just watch your content for entertainment. Next I realize I'm suddenly using techniques I learned from you 🤣 Thank you for making learning so much fun
Thanks again!!! I always appreciate your videos and learn a lot from them!
Thank you for this awesome tip AND for the free action
My go-to channel. I LOVE your teaching technique. Blessings to you.
4 Videos and i have learned more than in 4 years before! Awesome skills! Keep going, i will follow! 🙂
You are such an outstanding tutor. I have been benefiting so much from your tutorials. Thanks much
Umesh, you are the best my friend I am learning so much from your video clips. I am a novice at photoshop and I love to use it but many a time I struggle trying to find my way around the tools. I have to write myself notes to remember. I have so many photos that are blurred now I can apply this process this will give me lots of practice. Thank you
LOVE THIS!!! Thank you, and thank you for the action (yes I did download).
Game changer! My sharpening was strong before, but this takes it to the next level. Ans SO easy with the action.
Great video as always! Thank you for continuing to provide content that is helpful to so many people
I’m glad I found your channel! I can’t stop watching them
You are the best teacher of PS ever. Thank you.
For what it’s worth, this Vivid Light technique works perfectly with the VERY LIMITED Photoshop for iPad. The iPad version has just the necessary filters and tools necessary to make it happen. For all of us waiting patiently for Adobe to give us a real mobile workflow experience on iOS, being able to use this technique gets us one step closer. I use it all the time now. Thank you Unmesh!
Wow! Thanks so much for the free download, it's very rare to get something for 'free' in this day and age that is actually useful and works. This is going to be a game changer for my workflow, looks really good at 50% opacity.
I found your channel last week. I’ve learned more from you than most channels combined
I just don't understand how you are so awesome. These videos are so good!!!! Thanks again for the amazing tutorials.
Thank you so much Unmesh. You are a great teacher. Very clear and concise.
Thank you Piximperfect! this is just wow!
your tutorials are really PERFECT, I always enjoying watching it!
I just love your videos so much. Thank you so much for always sharing these tips & tricks. ❤️
I'm using an ancient PS, don't have the tools to do what you are doing however on my quest to convert low resolution family photo's to a high resolution, this tip helped alot in a process I created through several different other methods of sharpening photo's. Thank you sir!
thank you very much!!! thanks to this video now i learned TWO sharpening techniques
Thank you so much, I wasn't knew any better sharpening option before this video. I've subscribed and liked
Thank you Unmesh, I think you have one of the best if not the best Photoshop channel
Your Channel is the best photoshop teacher. I have learned a lot. Love from Sri Lanka 🤗❤️
You don't even know how my face smiles! thank you very much from Poland.
Brilliant!
And somehow I hadn't known about the snapshot feature!? Thank you!
Its amazing Unmesh, how you find new techniques in photoshop! Kudos my friend! and thanks a lot
Unmesh, you are still the best! Thank you so much! And please continue!
Thank you so much! Great technique. Exactly what i was searching for. Greetings from Berlin; Germany
Wow, this really works well and this saved an important photo that my autofocus was a little off! Now the photo looks great! Thanks for the tutorial and the macro to save time!
I know! Don't you just hate that, a photo that looks great zoomed out but then you zoom in and - oh no - it isn't actually fully focused 😭 Unmesh has helped me bring back plenty of beautiful photos that otherwise weren't quite right
my day honestly brightens as soon as i see piximperfect's videos, live i've been just watching his videos and then when i got photoshop i was like. wait a minute, i know what im doing
Reading this comment definitely brightens my day, Alekzy! Thank you so much for your support, and I'm delighted to know that you're navigating your way through Photoshop!
Thank you so much for the tutorial and for the Ps Action!
