Dr_Watson Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Didn't notice really but I have a funny feeling it doesn't At least the tower is there, and with UK2000 scenery, Warton looks really nice on approach. I just need to work out how to make the shots look sharper for a screenshot, they seem to lose a lot of quality during resizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What paint program are you using? You'll need one that does the equivalent of Photoshop's "unsharp mask" filter - which, oddly, sharpens the image! Also - don't apply it to the whole image (or over-do it). Make a selection and apply it to that. If oyur paint program can do "feathered" (soft) edges, then you won't see a sharp edge transition where your sharpen/filtered area starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may as well be speaking Japanese to me! I use Picasa, I have no experience with any paint programmes, so I need to start from scratch. Is there a free programme that could help me produce more shots. I am taking these with the V key which I presume is the correct way, or is it better to capture with another programme?

You may be able to find an older version of Paintshop Pro for free ... or try "The Gimp" (free, but a clunky interface). Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
