Way oversharpened, there's a halo around the entire aircraft.

poor lighting and bad contrast?
Hi, I really don't think there's anything wrong with the lighting and contrast of this pic:
JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!
I've appealed two other pics this week successfully, and I don't want to come across as appealing everything, so I'd appreciate feedback on this picture now. Granted it's quite difficult to get it right with the cloudy background and the sun behind/above it, but I really think it is correctly lit/exposed/processed.
Thanks!

M11: The main problem with the lighting is that the plane is backlit. As for the contrast, I can't say, but to me it looks like a little too much. There's not really anything you can do about this photo being backlit. I'm afraid it's for the collection.
Delwin, you might want to try something like this.

Thanks for the reply. Still, I want some more clarification. What is backlit? Have a look at my pic, you'll see that the sun was to the right behind the plane, i.e. to the right of where I was. That's different from a pic that is completely obscured because all you see is shadows, when the sun is directly behind it.
Even so, why is "backlit" a problem if you do not miss any detail, and the colour is realistic? Just want to know...

Hi there, Ward
As you see in the pic, the sun was behind the aircraft, probably not completely opposite to your position, but enough to have 'your' side of the aircraft in the shadow. This, together with the bright almost white sky kills the photo.
I had a quick go at the curves to correct this a bit. The result is a more pleasant sky, but there's still this backlight.
Unfortunately, my suggestion is to forget this one.
Regards
Gerardo

Hi there.
Here's a shot I took last year while I was at LAX. I tried to upload it at least 4 times, but now I've pretty much given up on it. However, I still think it has some potential, I'm just not an editing pro at all.

Thanks in advance for your help!

In my opinion, the motive simply not there. In my eyes it's basically a snapshot taken ou t of a window on the taxiway. The main subject - the Hawaiian B767 - would have been better off taken from somwhere outside.
I also don't know why - perhaps the windows - but the quality seems bad to me, very noisy.
My advice - unfortunately - would be to put this one into your personal collection.
Cheers

Help with rejected photo
Hi There,
I have had this photo rejected for "digital manlipulation" and I am not sure what I have done wrong. I appoligise if a rejection email is sent out with more information but I am away from home so cannot access my mail. I really just need a pointer to what I have done wrong.
The link is http://www.jetphotos.net/viewreject.php?id=820434
Thanks in advance for any help

Andy, your pic shows some halos around the aircraft. This can either be caused by the "shadow/highlight" tool in Photoshop, or by the sharpening. Some "auto-correct" features in Elements or so also produce this kind of halo.

Hi.
got this rejected for Sensor Dust spots.
JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!
But I don't see them. Might be because the screen at work isn't too good...but I won't be at home with my beloved Samsung SM 959NF for a while so I ask you here.
Thanks for your help.
Georg
