Pre-screening Advice for LewisW295 Please

[Julian S.]

1. Not sure where to go with the contrast to be honest. Any suggestions? Also, the centering, am I correct in saying too high in the frame?
2. Well that's a kick in the teeth! Glad you caught it as you've saved me an upload slot. One for the personal collection then.

Contrast is too harsh, and yes airplane is centered too high in frame - you can make not much wrong when you center the windows to the middle of the frame (exceptions prove the rule).

Stay Safe!

1. centering, borderline contrast/oversharpened
2. sharpening ok now, but looking closer I see the engine is partially obstructed as well. You can get away with that for the nose gear, but any other area will be an issue.

Before abandoning the metaphorical ship, I've made an edit focusing on specific colors to try and boost the contrast. If still a no-go, I may try the other unless you have any advice in regards to editing the existing image?. I've also resharpened the nose shot. With the nose shot, is motive clear enough for upload?

Possibly fixable. You can post the other if you prefer.

3. Unfixable? To be honest, I did half expect this as the cloud had started rolling in. I do have another shot from the sequence but would 2 different shots in the same sequence, after 1 being deemed unfixable, be classed as similar for pre-screening?

1. borderline soft (but ok for me)
2. ok for me
3. contrast, centering

1. Will give a smidgen of sharpening and upload.
2. Will join the que tonight

And so it begins....

Nose shot from rollout, a taxi shot and a rotation shot. All taken within 5 minutes! It promptly hammered down about 30 second after the last shot was taken.

Thanks bud. Another query, if I have a shot of an airframe during rollout, taxi (similar but different phase) take off roll and airborne, I'm presuming I can only use 3 images? Taxi showing the starboard side, rollout showing port and the airborne?

Correct.

[LewisW295]

Sure, repost a new version any time.

May of been a tad excited for my first A346 in 7 years....

N142TW, I uploaded it but the resolution was out. Before it went through screening, I cleaned out my useless LRC images and accidentally got rid of the main copy.

[LewisW295]

You'll have to be a little more specific.

Hey,

Due to me being a massive tit and accidentally deleting the image from lightroom, would you mind pre-screening this one again in the future? The rejection isn't fixable as it was a crop issue. If not then I completely understand as it would be an entirely fresh edit from the base file.

4. acceptable for me

Selective sharpening itself does not produce oversharpening. It depends on the sharpening settings.

Ah okay, guess it's something I will have to play with and "eyeball". Thanks bud
