Hi Melissa, could you post both the files here?

I agree that it's not perfect, but it'll sharpen up ok, don't worry.

Download my PSD First, I duplicated the Background layer twice, and ran High Pass filter on both of them - first broad, and second narrow. This brings out the detail a bit. It also creates halos, but since those were in the example photo you linked too, I figured it was ok - part of the style. Then a Levels layer for an aggressive vignette. And finally another Levels layer for the hazy look. Make sure you look at all of the channels in this layer.

Oh Miranda, I know you're hoping I'll have some magic trick, but I really don't, sorry This will require careful cloning, and a LOT of time and patience. Before you start, do this first.

Hi Jennifer, there is no pixelation visible here. Where are you seeing it, exactly?

Best Practices for LR Export
Damien Symonds replied to Elizabeth G's topic in Lightroom questions or problems
Lightroom is no different from Photoshop in this regard. Your export or save settings are entirely dependent on the purpose for which you're creating the file. You never "just export a file". It always must have a specific purpose. So, what is the purpose of the files you wish to export today? -

How to reduce yellow cast on screen
Damien Symonds replied to Schwpz's topic in Monitor calibration questions or problems
There's no "solving" it. It's very normal, especially for a laptop, that non-colour-managed interfaces make the photos look strange. If you got a nice desktop screen to plug into your laptop, it would be better. -
Correcting Image (Signature) on Opaque Background
