Cheers mate. I did some research into the matter to try and find a better spotting area at Cardiff and think I've managed to find one.
I've now had a chance to edit the Wizzair but I'm not sure if I've oversaturated the airframe. Could you have a look please before I que it?

Heat haze is caused by temperature differentials between air layers (usually close to the surface), and can occur any time hot or cold. Usually more common in summer since the ground heats up faster, but it can occur any time of year. Just think of how jetwash from an engine distorts the background regardless of whether it's hot or cold out, it's the same thing...but maybe easier for you if you think of it as 'atmospheric distortion' instead. You can combat it by getting closer to the subject so there is less atmosphere between you and the subject to distort, or you can pick times of the day/year when it is less likely there will be large differences in temperature near the ground (early morning, evening, etc.).

1. yes heat hazed
2. borderline crop. It's tight enough, but generally not good to cut the flap fairing like that.
In regards to the Wizz, I think I will go with the full image. I don't think I can re-add the flap fairing without making the horizontal stab look bad.

Originally posted by LewisW295 View PostGood evening, two from today that I'd like some thoughts on. 2-TRVL, possible heat haze? The Wizz. Right, this photo is completely unedited except for the crop. Would this crop be acceptable? The motive behind it is to draw attention into the fuselage.
Cheers and stay safe!

In fact it looks like there was high thin clouds on that day flattening out the light, not necessarily what I would consider 'good light conditions'.

Thank you for the haze explanation. That gives me something to consider going forward into the summer months.
With the contrast on the last two, is this a fixable "messed it up in post" rejection? The weather and lighting conditions were good on the day so I must admit, I wasn't expecting a contrast issue. Any advice on what I should be looking for when it comes to contrast in fair weather? In post, I ensured that I balanced the histogram without blowing the colours.

In regards to the haze, what's the telltale way of seeing this? Try as I might, I genuinely can't see the haze on 1 & 2. With the Cityflyer, I can see the jet blast from the engines but I assume this is not what you mean by haze?

It would not.

All images have poor contrast and haze affecting the quality. Do not think they are fixable.

2 (possibly 3?) I'd like some thoughts on. First up, a BA Cityflyer. Slightly concerned about sharpness and level (which I don't have a good eye for). The 2nd, a taxiing image of a Hawker. On this one, I'm concerned about contrast. Lastly, the same Hawker departing shortly afterwards. Would this be classed as same even though it's a different phase of the flight? If it is, then please ignore image 3. If not, then sharpness, specifically around the reg is concerning. The jetwash seems to of "bent" it slightly but not sure if this would class as haze or not?
Thanks in advance!
