Hi! I'm unsure about the contrast and horizon leveling for this one. I currently aligned the leveling with the runway markings. Do I need to rotate the picture a bit more counterclockwise?

Good day! Just got a rejection of oversharpen and too much/little contrast for this one. Any recommendations, and does it worth an appeal?

Sharpening is borderline, but contrast is too low. As such not really worth an appeal.

Much appreciated for the feedback. I reworked the photo, along with some prior shots, and I'd like a prescreening for these.

Good to know it. I further increased the contrast for 1 and reworked 4 for sharpening. I'd like to know if they're fine now.

Both still borderline, but would be ok for me.

Still borderline contrast on first, and last looks a bit blurry in places, but the rest would be ok for me.

There are issues with color (too yellow), noise, (lack of) contrast, and (over)exposure.
