Hi Jetphotos crew! Just want to ask for some pre-screening advice for the photos attached, as I have not uploaded photos for a while and I am re-visiting some photos I took back in 2018. Thanks!

These would be rejected for backlit/contrast/soft/heat haze. Not fixable.

These would be rejected for backlit/contrast/soft/heat haze. Not fixable.

Thanks! For the backlit issue, I have some trouble understanding the rule of thumb mentioned in the Guideline: "If the tail casts a shadow on the fuselage, the photo is most likely to be rejected for backlit." In these two photos, I do notice that the vertical stabilizer and fuselage below the windows are darker (red circled in the picture), indicating the backlit issue. Am I understanding this correctly?




I also wondering if you can help me prescreen a few more photos. I think the backlit is no longer an issue in these photos. I have also added more sharpening to resolve the soft issue. Thanks!

Just need to look at the tail, really. In shadow for both of these, so backlit.

1. centering, contrast
2-3. contrast

Very poor light on all of these. You'll need to shoot in better conditions if you'd like to have a hope of any being accepted.

Hello again! Just want to ask for more pre-screening advice for photos I previously took at different airports and on different days. Specifically, I am a little bit concerned about the lighting conditions and the resulting backlit/contrast issues for these photos (FYI the Thai A350 one was taken at sunset time), as I am trying to learn how to distinguish between fixable and non-fixable photos. Thanks!
