Hi Dean great video

Dean; Well done. Q- why turn the layer to B&W before using HP Thanks Ben

[@deancooperphotography2896]

Hi Ben, its not critical to do this but technically it is better, less noise I think from memory. If setting up an action then you can include this step. cheers

I did everything you said in this great video but when i start sharpening it makes it gray and not transparent. Second, how do i save this now as a Jped? when i do i get all the gray on top of the selected area and it is aweful

[@deancooperphotography2896]

Hi, if the sharpened layer is grey, it is because you haven't yet changed the blend mode to "Overlay" or "Soft Light", once you change the blend mode the grey will become the sharpening.
To save this as a jpeg you need to flatten the layer. you can't save jpegs with layers. If you want the file with the sharpened layer you need to save as a Tiff or PSD file, cheers
