It is oversharpened, you can clearly see it at the registration! the hor. Stab and the complete wing, cockpit windows, engine also. This in particular, but the overall impression is that it is oversharpened.
As for the noise. Just have a look at the sky
It looks like it is sharpened with the rest if the picture...
Hope this helps!
Cheers

Yes, I would. It appears that both pics would have been blurry in the beginning, resulting in over-compensating with the sharpening creating an ovesharpened pic.

Just my 2p.
I agree and i probably would have rejected them... but hey i'm not a screener nor do i want to be.
Marginally oversharpened Alan.....you may just have got away with it if the picture was better quality... you've gone a step too far trying to overcome an underexposed and hence soft photo.
I'm a little bemused as to why you chose to post those two pictures, and make the comment that you made Kevin ? Doing so merely brings into question the abilities of the photographers concerned and the screeners who passed them into the database, with no useful input to the original question.
Their inclusion in this thread has no bearing on the photograph originally in question, which has a definitely noisy sky. The oversharpening is visible as fine jaggies in the tail stripes and haloes around the gear, registration and fine text on the nose. The picture may be salvageable with judicious use of layers and selective sharpening. As others have said, exclude the sky from the processing as sharpening and shadow/highlight use will rapidly destroy it, and the picture as a result.
If it 'ain't broken........ Don't try to mend it !
Kevin There was no need to post other peoples photos in my thread i just asked for advice on my shot.
To all that replied i cant see any of that on my monitor but loaded on to my sons pc and looked there and i can now see it all thx for the replies i have filed it under P for personal

I couldn't have said it better !!
Kevin you can realise that we are just human and that as screeners we are looking for reasons to accept pics and not reject them... So I will just give you some good reasons to accept those slightyly oversharpened pics...
With all respect due, a side on shot of an AF A319 at MAN is not that rare...
Alan, always look at the reg, it's usually a good place to realise if a shot is oversharpened or not, that's what we screeners do...
There are others that I think are not good enough. What I was trying to show is that the standard varies greatly, and this is problem, definitely.
As soon as we have a clear cut defition for "sharp", there won't be no consistency issues anymore. Promised!
Or, we just reduce the screening team to one member. He or she will have his/her personal standards and there won't be much inconsistency issues anymore. But I fear for the worst regarding screening times ....
