Oh I get it.. when you erase the sharpening on the layer.. you keep the original softness but the droplet stays sharp.. I need to get more experience in PS.. so I am still learning .. thank you for sharing your post editing process
You're welcome I plan on in the future...not sure exactly when but doing a very in depth step by step process, starting at the very beginning being opening the image in photoshop.....I plan on doing this with an image that is being processed with only tools that cs2 and cs3 have....no extra plugins or actions. Then I plan on letting people down load the original so they can try the step by step process themselves, that way people can learn a bit more on how to use photoshop and can see what a difference playing with the settings can make for an image.
Do you think that's a good idea?

I've been meaning to ask (and I can't remember if I have already or not! lol), the cross processing you do...is that a plug-in you use or just a technique you've developed yourself?
I'm so ignorant of plug-ins and actions and thingies lol I need some help!
