    Thanks--and huge kudos to the review team for paring down the backlog this weekend

    Two follow-up questions:

    1. Wanted to follow up on earlier discussion re: dust spots. I'm finding it impossible to find some spots using "check for dust" in LR that are readily apparent after uploading and using JP's "check for dust" tool. Any suggestions for alternate dust-finding methods in LR?

    2. I'm having issues with a lot of airborne photos being overprocessed. Using #1 and #2 above, can you help me pinpoint this? Too much sharpening? Contrast? Something else?

      1. Use the JP tool if your own software is insufficient.
      2. Editing halos are visible.

            Is the contrast ok on this one? And this would be a "special scheme", correct?

              Contrast ok for me. Yes special scheme. Horizon looks off.

                First off, this one is not enough contrast, correct? https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10062189

                Also four new prescreens, thanks!

                    The serial number is blank for every single photo I've uploaded over the last couple weeks. Are these going to be rejected for missing info or are they in there and some sort of glitch is causing the SN not to show? (Sampling: https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10091618, https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10076612, https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10108793)

                      Serials typically don't show on images in the queue, but if they were uploaded with one, it will be visible in screening.

                        Need some advice: photo was rejected for horizon unlevel and at a glance, it does indeed look like it needs CW rotation. However, I very diligently checked all the vertical lines in the background and they are in fact vertical. https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10194065

                        Am I missing something? Or should I be rotating the photo to "look" level, even if not straight according to background reference lines?

                          Screener's comments were that CCW rotation was needed. Not sure that I agree entirely due to the conflicting verticals, so take that for what it's worth.

                            Is this reject due to saturation or white balance? If saturation, I added a nominal amount in LR (saturation slider on 5), should I desaturate the blues? (I realize the blue is kind of garish but that's mostly just the way the new United planes look under bright light). https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10220593

                              No comments from the screener in this case, but my guess would be oversaturated, to which I agree the colors (not just the UA livery) are a bit strong.

                                Prescreen please.
                                After a long hiatus I got a good shooting session in earlier this week and with the new observation area opening at KCLT I will look forward to being active on JP once again in 2024.
                                Thanks in advance!
