Who needs help with their scans / rejects?? We can help you!
I think I would either include all of the right hand main gear OR completely exclude it by cropping to lose the gear but keep the title and include the T of TUI. I'd also crop with winglet tip tight to the top of the frame.
Hi Brian,
I will try your suggestions if possible with the original picture.
for "Dark / Underexposed" and "Too much noise or grain" (I'm thinking it might be concentrated on the hangar, right?)
The first reason can be easily fixed but I'm afraid that it might make the second one worst. Opinions? Can I save the pic or is it one for the dark corners of my hard drive?
The darkness, just lighten up the image a tad more and it should be ok, Have a look at the histogram in photoshop and that will tell you if its ok or not.
The shadows show some noise. I guess it has to do with the exposure of the original photo. Judging by the shadows and contrast, you were shooting slightly into the sun, what may have tricked the camera logic.
The Hue/Saturation is because the colours of your photos aren't natural.
The have green cast. You can see it on the grass and the white areas of the plane.
Here some examples(it''s not perfect, but to give you an idea about the green colour)

I processed only the plane using the magnetic lasso. Levels were clipped correct. Increase of midtones to 1.1. Few passes of USM 50 0.2 0 (thanks Brian), a little bit of hue for red.
For air only photos, thanks to Brian I have understood the JP process and process the pic well. However, for this picture which is on the ground, I do not know (a) where the problem in the contrast is (b) is it salvageable and (c) how to process this correctly.
I have about 30+ pics like this and would to ensure I do things correctly and meet the JP standards.
Also for bad info on the airline. This is a new service launched by Jet Airways. The additional labels of the "Konnect" service are added. I am not sure if this warrants the addition of an airline, and I had indicated this on the "Hot Photo" explanation.
So I am a little confused on this being cited as a reject reason.
Well, just got the first tranche of my DXB photos through; not too bad (don't worry screeners ... lots more to look forward to )
Just one question I had about sharpening.
In most cases, my practice has been to apply one blast of 100%/1.0 and then, another of 100%/0.1. It's all experimentation, I know, but it seems to work.
Open up the histogram in levels and move the left and right baseline arrows in to meet the points where the graph starts on the baseline. Ignore any small block of graph at each end of the baseline. This will fix the contrast.
For sharpness, apply 3 passes of USM at 50_0.2_0
....and that SHOULD do it !
If it 'ain't broken........ Don't try to mend it !
