Unsharp Masking of Negatives?

Being fairly new to APUG but have attended John Sexton's 'Fine Tuning' workshop and highly recommend it if it is possible. John and his wife, Anne, are amazing team. The week was more than worth the $$ spent. He's in CA. and I am in ME.

I am just getting started with unsharp masking techniques and found this link very helpful- thanks!

I have a copy of a 3 part article by Mark Jilg and Dennis McNutt on masking and how to make masks.

If you would like a copy then send an email with just "masking" in the subject line and nothing else in message. Send request to:

masking (at) visualperception (dot) net

I'm only going to send this once in a day or two.

Dear Rob or Others,

Would you mind sending out another copy of the McNutt - Jilig article? I just ran across this thread today after spending some time researching the techniques.

Thank you and Warm Regards,
Joe

I'd love to get a copy of this as well. Thanks!

Chuck, Howard Bond from Ann Arbor, MI taught photography workshops for many years. He is a master B&W photographer and printer. He is a strong believer in using unsharp masks for traditional B&W printing from 4 x 5 negatives. He wrote several articles over the years covering his techniques. I have scanned copies of these which I will be happy to forward to you. Send me an email requesting them: lcs7@bex.net
