Lulz, I commented on them before I checked my thread.

An old shot I came across when bored. I decided to experiment with duotones.

Too blurry imo.

I've always loved the distinct details on flames, but this one seems kind of.. blurry?

Well, as the temple was dark and somewhat drafty, even a shutter speed of 1/160 was not enough to freeze the movement of the flame. Also, shooting at such a large aperture (f/1.8) bright objects tend to have a kind of halo glow effect.

I like the blur of the flames tbh. It creates a definite contrast between the amount of detail visible on the candle + it's wick and the flame its self

Is there a tut on editing videos to make them look 'sharper'?

Not sure. I'm sure you could apply an unsharp mask to video frames within a video editing program (Vegas, Final Cut Pro etc), but that would take quite a while to process.

I don't do videography, so I'm making guesses here.

Google is your friend for this, I used books to learn, so I don't have any sites I would recommend.

A quick search came up with this high-pass sharpening technique: http://www.photoshopsupport.com/tuto...harpening.html
