Dr. Brown strikes again with a re-editable sharpening technique

russellbrown.jpgDr. Brown has added a unique Photoshop CS2 script for you to download to his wacky Photoshop Tips and Tricks web site. He's been kind enough to record a video tutorial showing how to use his Dr. Brown's Services script in practical ways. The script contains two virtual machines–the Place-A-Matic and the Merge-A-Matic. Place-A-Matic places images from Adobe Bridge into Photoshop as Smart Objects. Brown shows how to use the script to place Camera Raw photos into a Photoshop file as Smart Objects. He then combines the Smart Object layers in interesting ways (masking to combine exposures, and colorizing portions of a black and white photo.) The best part is that because these Smart Objects are made from raw images, they can be reopened in the Camera Raw dialog for further adjustments, including — get this — non-destructive, re-editable sharpening. If you're a true Photoshop geek, you'll realize how useful that is. Editable sharpening - it's aMAZing - as Brown would say!
