Interesting to see the adjustment settings, Milton - thanks for posting.

My sharpness settings would always be the inverse of these - smallest value at 5.0 and largest at 1.5. Often 1.0 adds too much noise so I tend to turn the volume down at 1.0. 

In Photoshop, I rarely use a sharpening pixel radius greater than 1 (I do usually do image sharpening before importing into PS so the additional sharpening in PS is minimal.)

best,

Alan

I guess they didn't come through.

I added them to my "milton_aupperle" Photo Album as "Settings.jpeg"
and "Adjusted20080911041821.jpg"

HTH..
