lbastardo // Pre-screening advice

hey Dana!

There's no way this is accepted, right? I tried 2 different edits and they were both rejected for contrast. This is my last attempt, and wanted to check before uploading. Weather was awful, but played with the setting a bit in LR and PS to try and salvage it.

Thanks!

Yes, due to the very poor contrast, very unlikely this would be accepted.

Hi all -

Would like some feedback on this photo, please. Helicopter cropping is still a bit tricky.
Thanks!

Hi, dlowwa !

Would love some feedback on this photo, please. If it's acceptable to upload - I'd have to mark it as 'cargo', right?

Thanks!

Let me add this one as well, please.

Both borderline for contrast. Cargo and Helicopter categories would apply.

Would this crop be okay? Also, where is it soft? Honest question, looking at the full quality file it seems to be all in focus. Thanks!

I´m not screener but the crop would be ok for me now. And it is a bit soft mainly in the nose/cabin and in the top of the fuselage. Not a big deal for me at all.

Previous crop was better. Somewhat soft towards the nose, but as always such (minor) flaws are much more visible at 1920pix.

Ok, last try - cropped a bit more similar to v1 and exported at 1600px. Also, if/when I upload, this would be a night shot because it was during the sunset, right?
