Quality rejection: Any advice?

[chachu207]

Got a rejection for Quality, but was just wondering what the specific problem was with this one. Would anyone be able to help, and I would appreciate any screener input on this one

Lot of noise on lower fuselage, whole pic seems overexposed as well, especially the upper fuselage. There are also too many soft elements (you seem to have focused on the area of the 'British Airways' insignia as that is relatively sharp whereas the reg is very soft as are the starboard engines etc).

Rather than overexposed (blown-out whites) the photo seems to me to lack contrast (faded blacks). It looks as though it was shot through a window. The lower-fuselage noise looks to me like jpeg compression. How did you process this one?

Well, level, crop, resize, saturation, levels, inverse select sky and then sharpen. Thats pretty much the core if it.

Theres way to much grain apparent on the shot im afraid.
