Frogfish, the main problem is that it looks way over sharpened
the actual level of sharpening (jaggies / artifacts)

It's the sharpening halos around the edges, especially along the sky. Can you show us the detail tab? Is something happening during your jpg conversion or upload?
The 2nd is much worse than the 1st which only showed slight halo at the top right sky interface.

Thanks Guys. Sorry Mike I don't use PS (assuming this is what you are referencing with 'details tab') ?
However I've been back and compared the Before & After (please take another look at this on the previous page - you can see quite a difference, though the new exported jpg doesn't look like the pre-exported comparison) so I think it must have something to do with the export from LR (I am using Mogrify 2 with Unsharp Mask) and maybe from SmugMug too (which also has it's own sharpening algorithm which I can play with). I need to work on those it seems because the version appearing on this forum is quite different to the one showing up in LR.
Appreciate the help ! Kevin
A7s -- 90mm f/2.8 Leica Elmarit-R E55 with Leitz Wetzlar ELPRO 3 This is a very substantial (heavy) close-up auxiliary lens I had read about but I had never used, nor had I ever seen one before bidding on one on Ebay.
Both with Sony A7 and Canon fd 300 f/2.8L lens (at f/2.8). Mounted on an Orion Atlas German Equatorial Mount (GEM). Guided exposures of about 5 and 10 minutes respectively.

I could see you used LR, just called it tab by mistake, but it seems like you know that something happened in Smugmug or on export. I don't know Mogrify.

Gregg, great sets from your holidays and nice to meet you virtually. If you ever venture past Pacific Northwest and cross border to Vancouver we shurely should meet for a Canadian cold one. Similarly, this invite stands to all FM-ers visiting Vancouver.
Taylor, great architectual shot!
Werner: "Garage Classic" - yeah!!!

This one is a dedication to my buddy Ken, whose grandparents opened this Vancouver food joint sometime in 1960s and according to pictures most of the interiors still remain unchanged.
One of the few images I took with the A7R today (just not enough hands for it and the D800) on our hike around Panorama Point at Mt. Rainier this afternoon. Threatening clouds all day that finally poured on us the last 1/2 mile back to the parking lot.

Not a lot of color in the original so I just took it all out . . .
