Here are the fourth one and fifth one after some minor adjustments for their clarity/sharpness, would you still say they're too soft?

Yes. Contrast also washed out on the first.

1-2. heat hazed
3. ok for me
4-5. borderline soft/heat hazed

Here are the fourth one and fifth one after some minor adjustments for their clarity/sharpness, would you still say they're too soft? I'm quite not sure about how to adjust the sharpness. Thank you!

Hello there, could you please take a look at these pictures - I have tried to make the Jeju one sharper as you said it was soft. Much appreciated!

Could anyone please help me take a look at these two, much appreciated.

2. soft

Could anyone please help me take a look at these two, much appreciated.

1. Too high in frame, foreground clutter (imo) and possible other issues.
2. Looks a bit weak of contrast (not sure though) and possible sharpness/heat haze issues

Really. In the EVA especially there's drastic changes in contrast in certain parts of the frame that you usually only see when shooting through glass. Was your lens dirty, or was there something else in the way?

I don't think it was due to my lens being dirty, as I mostly clean it every now and then; when editing pictures I'm aware that the contrast of my pictures is quite weird in comparison with others'.

The China Airlines and Delta were taken on the same day as the Altas Cargo one, so I'm not sure why would this occur to some pictures but some wouldn't.

Actually none of them was taken through window glass, I still wonder if there's any to fix them or it's not worthy to fix, thank you.

First is just a bit soft. Others suffer from contrast/sharpening issues likely related from shooting through window glass. Best tip for better contrast/sharpness is not shooting through window glass and in better light conditions.

Please take a look at these four, thank you! (I'm still not sure if they're still too soft or too sharp, and if their contrasts are enough, I wonder is there any technique when adjusting contrasts & sharpness? I'm not sure if the crop in the Delta one would be too awkward either.)

Hi there; so basically after 8 months I'm probably more familiar with this page (apologies for some stupid contents I've sent in the past); I would like to ask if there's anything I can improve on for this picture (My previous pictures were mostly rejected for contrast too high/low & soft, and I don't really have any idea on how to adjust) thanks!!

This would be rejected for soft, (low/flat) contrast, overprocessed, and dirty. Would need a significantly better edit.

Apologies for the mistake I made earlier. Could I ask do you have any advice for this picture? Thank you
(Note: If there is any other problem I made, please let me know, if possible!)

Quality is off, not fixable for me.
