Hi, I have a photo rejected for being Over Processed / Bad postprocessing...Can anyone help? I really want to get this one in as its my first sighting of a 707 and also that it is quite a rare visitor to Hong Kong. Thank you

Kevin,

did you use the shadow/Highlights tool in PS?

The Pic has noticeable glowing along the bottom of the fuselage, and dark shadowing on top of the fuselage. This usually appears after using the S/H tool a little too much. its a common fault we tend to see these days.

Hope this helps

Ooh ok cool, thanks, I'll try to fix it.

...... you really feel old when some one reports seeing their first B707.

Mind you I've yet to see my first A380!

Use shadow/highlights very sparingly, no more than 10%. I was caught out with that before.

Ahha thanks for the tips
