Roman Colosseum with High Pass Sharpening

[jbwolffiv]

My wife had the opportunity to go to Italy the week of Easter, knowing this I got her a better P&S to bring with the instructions of "take more pictures than you can think of!" ; She did a great job, might make a photographer out of her!

I took a shot at the High Pass Sharpening tutorial on a shot of the Colosseum even though I use Elements. ; I was happy to find out I could also work though this, just had to search for some things as they are a little different than Photoshop. ; Here are the two, I was happy with the results. ;

That High Pass Sharpening looks like it does a lot of the same things that the Nik Color Efex Tonal Contrast does. ; I really like the way it cleans up the photos.

Is Nik Color Efex free? ; Is it cheap? ; I only have Elements and bought Topaz Adjust to use with it.

Very nice. ; Would love to go there someday.

Thanks Jim! ; After hearing about her trip, we are SLOWLY putting money aside to go back!
