It is sharpened seems to me?! I understood one rule after long time: Don't ever sharpen the images in Photoshop! Halo effect appears in most cases!

 

Best regards, Michael!

I like the overall view and composition of the photo. It seems to have lost some sharpness with pn's compression to fit their format. Was it sharper in the original before you re-sized it. (I sometimes have problems in this regard, especially with vertical pictures. The reduction in size to fit really plays hell with the sharpness sometimes.)

Re: Halo effects- it not so much sharpening in Photoshop that causes the halos, as it is shooting in or reformatting to JPG and then not being ultraconservative in the processing. I have had JPG images fresh from the camera and completely unprocessed that have roping due to native extreme contrast in the image.  Using too much clarity or extreme changes to luminance in Lightroom will cause (or worsen) halos/"roping" especially where very dark and very light areas meet.  Increasing contrast can also make the halos/roping worse. The cure: shoot RAW, always use a light touch with the processing, and enlarge to 400% or higher to check for halos and roping.

To me this image has the feel of a very old photograph in which I would not expect a lot of sharpness. I don't know if it was processed to have the look of old BW film or if it was shot from a great distance or through a window. In any event, I find it  to be an interesting, well-composed  documentary type of image that could be found in a 1950s coffee table book.
