Retouching Errors Made By SO MANY Photographers | Over-sharpening photos - when is it too sharp?

Have you ever come across an image that looks like the subject has been dipped in hairspray? It's because of over-sharpening! A couple of weeks ago we released a video about 2 common retouching errors and you guys LOVED it, so we figured why not add another? This time we’re looking at a widespread issue that happens to every photographer in their learning journey and I hope that by popping this here, we can whizz you past this problem and into the safe zone right now. Today, we’re looking at Over Sharpening. How sharp is too sharp and when should you hit the breaks on your sharpening missions?

This is a common retouching error made by lots of photographers, and there's a fine line between a shot being over-sharpened or not. In this video I'll show you one of my own images, on the verge of being over-sharpened, and how NOT to make this common retouching error.
