Hey everyone, I recently got a bunch of rejections, so I'd very much appreciate hearing some advice before trying again with these 4 shots:

1. borderline dark, but ok for me
2. color, borderline noise/vignetting
3. borderline soft/contrast
4. overprocessed, borderline soft/contrast

[janchorobik]

Thanks very much, are they better now?

Thanks very much, are they better now?

1. as before
2. contrast, overprocessed, borderline vignetting
3-4. soft, borderline contrast

[janchorobik]

Hey again, could I please get some feedback on these two?

Hey again, could I please get some feedback on these two?

1. borderline overprocessed/heat hazed, though the latter would be ok for me. Check the sky for specks/birds as well.
2. contrast

Hi, are they better now?



And may I ask in what way is the overprocessed meant? I'm not really used to that kind of lighting, thus I edited the A340 photo just very slightly, so what could I do better in the future?

Also, Happy new year!

Still borderline for heat haze/contrast.

And may I ask in what way is the overprocessed meant?

Editing halos (on tail).

Not much you could do yourself, the air was just a bit hazy at that time.

Thanks for the feedback, I tried uploading, but both got rejected for dust (only). Is there something I'm missing or is it a wrong rejection?

Not really visible imho, but yes there are dust spots on both.

[janchorobik]

I can't believe you can see them so well, especially in such a small photo, well, at least I'm discovering new functions in Lightroom to conquer the neverending rejections

Hey, thanks so much for the previous help, I'm very happy both got accepted!

Could I also get an opinion on this photo? I'm not really sure if it's even worth uploading, but I didn't want to just throw my beloved Fokker away And would this be considered a night photo?

Night shot, yes, but too dark to be accepted.

Ok, is this better?

Still borderline for dark/contrast, but might have a chance.
