Perhaps... It may be a good idea to mention this in the remarks to the screener.

Screeners are allowed to use discretion in accepting skyshots but there is no guarantee that one would in this case.

The sky carries a bit of grain/noise, I feel that it would be rejected because of it.

If you use selective adjustments you can apply noise reduction to the sky only, vice versa for sharpening... Like a good friend of mine on this site says, why would you ever need to sharpen the sky?

Best of luck!

One thing to understand is that Lightroom is NOT A SUBSTITUTE for Photoshop. Lightroom is primarily a RAW converter and Photoshop is an image editor.

The sharpening and noise reduction functions in Lightroom is for counter-acting the effects of having a filter in front of your camera's sensor, this is called sharpening for output.

Noise reduction should be done at the image editor stage of your workflow. Noise reduction should be done by not sharpening parts of the picture that does not need to be sharpened and by specialist programs.

The two that I use are Nik Dfine and Topaz deNoise.

Global sharpening, that is sharpening everything in the picture is an bad way to do sharpening, USM, un-sharp mask will try to sharpen the sky and creates noise in your picture especially in plain blue skies.

Your picture is very high-key, I am assuming that this was not deliberate. In that case the sky is over exposed, it lacks contrast and shadow detail in the trees.

If it is an attempt at a high key image then advise the screeners of this.

The sky is over exposed cuz of cloudy weather and i mask the plane to get it "pop" from the backround and the trees have little bitt motion blur so i cant save them... well i dont have anything to do than go and shoot new one... Or? :)

So what have you produced at the end of all this? A picture that you can not use.

One bitter pill that every photographer must taste is knowing when to give up with a bad image is a sign or maturity in a photographer.
