  • Topaz Sharpen AI – [BEST sharpening software or is it?]

    Topaz Sharpen AI – [BEST sharpening software or is it?]

    Many of us want our photos to be sharp. Sometimes we have images that are a bit unsharp. The reason might be that the shutter speed is too long for stopping the motion and the image has some motion blur. Sometimes we have camera shake pr we miss the focus.

    In many cases, we can remake the image, but not always. Then it would be great if there was a software that could help us. TopazLabs has a solution, Topaz Sharpen AI. It is part of their AI-driven software sets like DeNoise AI and Gigapixel AI.

    Topaz Sharpen AI can fix images that have motion blur, camera shake or are slightly out focus. Like I say in the linked video below it is not a solution for sloppy photography, but a rescue method if you really need a photo that has something wrong with the sharpness.

    It does not work if you need to print big. Images that are for social media or another online posting, it works great.

    Here you can see images before and after. There was some motion blur and Sharpen AI made the images ok for use in small size in social media for example.

    The downside of the Topaz Sharpen AI that it is quite slow. You need to have a powerful computer for it to work.

    The great thing is that you test Topaz Sharpen AI. It has a 30-day unlimited trial version. So there is no risk. If you do not like it or it is not for you just delete it after you have tested it.

    If you have tested the Sharpen AI, please let me know what do you think about it.

    Black And White Photography – [5 things why B&W photography will make you a BETTER photographer]

    Black and White photography can be a great way to learn photography. Nothing color to tell the story you need to concentrate more on your composition and light.

    It is so much harder to tell stories without colors. But at the same time, black and white can be a lot more powerful in story telling. There is no color distracting your story.

    The things that become more important are the foundations of photography, composition, and light. Practicing on your composition and seeing light will help you a lot also in color photography.

    In the video below there are more things about why black and white photography is a good way to learn about photography.
