thebigdog360 - Prescreening Advice

[thebigdog360]

Hello, would appreciate a pre-screening for this please. Not sure what to do with horizon, also I am not confident if this is enough contrast or if it is possibly backlit? Also, would this photo count as hot for the addition of the tip tanks, or should it go in the regular queue? Thanks.

Hello. Was at a charity event where teams are allowed to pull a 757. I know that when a tug is pulling an airplane, it can be cropped in, so would this crop be acceptable? I have other angles with just the airplane, but wanted to include the novelty if possible. Also any other prescreening comments, thanks!

Very soft. Motive/centering at screener's discretion.

Hello, prescreening for these please, would either be seen as backlit? Also horizon is tricky for me on the second. Thanks in advance.

1. borderline harsh contrast. ok for me.
2. soft/heat hazed, noisy, borderline overexposed/harsh contrast

Understandable for the angle. I have tried to fix up the other two. I don't know if I will be able to save the first as even applying some anti-vignetting causes it to look a little strange when I use the dust tool, different from what I'm used to when there is a little vignette. But maybe it is fine(?).

Both a bit soft, otherwise ok for me.

Pre screening for these four please. I have not tried any airport photos before, is this crop/centering okay? Also, would this be ramp category? Thanks in advance!

1. borderline vignetting
2. borderline soft/overexposed
3. motive for me. not a great angle.
4. ok for me.

Pre screening for these three please. I have not tried any airport photos before, is this crop/centering okay? Also, would this be ramp category? Thanks in advance!

I'm not a screener but all three look soft/blurry to me, especially #1. I'm not a pro on the ramp shot but I think it would be ramp category.

Good luck

I was messing around with my camera settings, which has probably hindered me here, but would appreciate a pre-screening for these two. I am not sure what isn't right with them, but they just seem off to me.

Soft/blurry.

Ok thank you, I know the possible contrast problem might also apply to this, but I'd like a prescreening for softness, as I don't know if the tail is as sharp as the nose. What do you think?

Again, not the greatest angle, but might be acceptable. Borderline soft.

Okay, this should be better.

Better, but most of the aircraft visible is in shadow, so could still end up getting a contrast rejection.
