Photoshop: Blur Tool and Sharpen Tool

We began using the Blur tool and Sharpen tool . Here are some examples of what I produced.

Both tools together can alter the depth of field. This is what there are primarily used for.

Blur Tool: (Size - 215px/Strength  - 85%)   used to blur the selected are of an image.

 

This was very easy to use and could be quite useful to those who need it.

Sharpen Tool: (Size - 46px/Strength - 50%) Used to give a selected image more focus.

This was difficult to use as we where told to use it sparingly, this meant I could not see much  progress for a while. This  requires  a bit more effort than the blur tool but I believe it can still be useful.

Here Is another image a chose myself.
