Sometimes a photo lack just that little something. I discovered a technique that I recorded as an action and it became one of my favourates.
I use Photoshop CS3
1) Open a photo and duplicate the layer.
2) Go to Filter > sharpen > unsharp mask
3) In the box that open, use the sliders. Amount: 7% Radius: 250 pixels Threshold: 0
If you need a bit more punch, repeat this action. Use the opacity slider on the copied layer to control the look .
Enjoy!
