Family Photography

I got this idea from CM.  They have a 1 question 1 answer thread.  Basically, ask a question and we'll answer it!  It's a great way to keep a bunch of questions/answers in 1 thread for easy reference.  Not that you can't start new threads for questions, but this again is just a great way to keep a bunch of info in 1 thread.

So ask your questions here and well answer them!  :O)  We'll keep the thread going and everytime there is a post, we should check it to see if we have an answer.  If we don't, bump it so it stays on the main page!  I don't think I can lock it in the top folder anymore, so if this thread takes off...maybe Becky can ask Wendy to move it into the top locked folder as it's own post!  :O)

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

OK, I have one. Could someone please post a photo with the "halos" I have heard about from over sharpening versus that same photo sharpened without the halos? I tried to google it, but didn't have much luck and I really want to know how to make sure to avoid said "halos" when sharpening! Thank you!

Great idea for a thread, by the way! I can't wait to see what else gets posted!

OK so this is an intentionally overly dramatic example, but you can definitely see them!

In my experience, halos are more likely to come from smallish areas of high contrast, so I picked this photo as an easy one to demonstrate, and sure enough, it was easy to get halos:
