Hi Macca,

Nice shot there! You may be able to save this picture if you use Highlight's just reduce the exposer, although in my opinion it's not to bad. Fixing the sharpening, that's fairly straight forward. If you need help editing post the original

It's a tad too bright. And if you look at the titles they seem 'jaggie'. Start again and dont sharpen as much

Noted thanks Sam, will redo it but reduce the amount of sharpening.

Brgds.

Shaprening suggestion

A very kind screener gave me a tip about a similar problem, try selective sharpening. Target the bits that need it and ease up on the bits that don't, e.g. the titles.

Try this tutorial. http://www.ophrysphotography.co.uk/p...sharpening.htm
This is where I learned the technique.
One word or caution, resist the temptation just to sharpen the aircraft, give everything bar the sky a touch of sharpening in one way or another.

Excellent thanks Wallace, i will have a read through that, and try to pick up some new techinques.
