Help! Does this photo need to be sharpened more?

I'm just wondering how to sharpen this image correctly. I used the unsharpen mask, radius .2, threshold 2, amount 70%. The sharpen settings on the camera were at 0.

Thanks!

No point; there's NOTHING sharp about Air Canada!



It looks fine to me

I will assume you want to sharpen for electronic display rather than to prepare the photo for print.

The photo has few edges that can be sharpened (low edge frequency).

I would start by increasing the mid-tone contrast.
Next I would use USM but for local contrast enhancement, which means a small Amount %, a large Radius value, 0 for Detail, and 0 for Threshold.

If I wanted more sharpness I would then use some Amount of USM that the image can tolerate with the Radius set to 1.0.
