NEW Editing advice thread

[Alex - Spot-This !]

Erezs,
This picture is totally backlit and I doubt it has any chance to be accepted from that angle.

Regards
Alex

Both horizontal stabilizer and wings are both cut off, plus a bit overexposed. At least me I´m not really a fan of that kind of angle on planes, even though I prefer some close ups rather than the whole plane (I didn´t screen it btw)

Cheers

Thank You Andres! Now i agree completely with the rejection.

Hi, I am quite not sure about these photos. I edited them with histogram, but I don't feel 100% sure about them. Could I have some suggestions/thoughts? Thanks!






Thanks in advance

Hello,
I have looked your photo with 100% size , i am very sorry to say that all of them seem to overexposed to me , the EVA A321 seems better than others but i think it still overexposed. Besides, in my personal perspective, all of them seem to suffer from Heat Haze especially the EVA but the Macau seems better, and the United 747 seems a little Oversharpened toward the nose and soft in the center area maybe due to Heat Haze . The Macau and Air Asia seems a little Blurry toward nose and titles.
Hope my advice can help you .
Cheers,
Harry

Thanks for the response; I agree with the first (although just in case I've retouched it) and I've edited the second too, are they better now?

I've also got another rejection, however I don't understand why it hasn't been accepted, there is clear motive as to why I've not centered the A330

Thanks again

Any chance someone can have a look at this one please? Thanks

Still pretty borderline for contrast. Those are different aircraft, yes? Otherwise they would be considered similar.

There's nothing at the bottom of the frame with the A330 that would justify the placement.

Hi,
Regarding to the A330, I agree with the rejected reason, you didn't center the whole A330 , as you see the space of right side is bigger than left side i don't know why you want to contain the BAE146, i don't think it is necessary to contain the BAE146 it is too small. If you contain the 146 you will find that it is too empty around the A330 . Besides, the contrast i think is too low you should add some more to it.
And , both of the A380 still look low contrast you can add more to it , and if they are the same plane i think you'd better choose your favorite one to edit and upload or it will be rejected with Similar i think .
Cheers,
Harry

First, a big thank you to Harry.
I am also concerned with the exposure, but the histogram seems that I exposed correctly: this is the UA747
Do I mis-understand the histogram?

Hi,
As you see, in the histogram , the "highest mountain" is in the right side it means that is a little overexposed you need to try your best to center it but still keep it will not become dark. You can have a try to reduce some exposure in your PS and you will find that the Mountain is moving to right it means it is going to the center. According to your histogram it is still overexposed.

I was wondering what I should do to this photograph so it could be acceptable

Hello, Lat
The whole photo seems very dark and the aircraft not center , besides the whole aircraft seems too over-sharpened you can see obvious Jaggy around some parts of the aircraft and some parts seems Blurry such as Titles and Front Gear. I think you should change another photo that is not blurry to edit because Blurry isn't fixable. When you crop this photo you should center the airplane.
Wish my advice can help you ~
Cheers,
Harry

In all honesty, I would drop that one. But just in case you want to try:
- place the aircraft more in the center
- crop to a suitable size ratio (at least 16:9)
- apply less sharpening to avoid jaggies
- and above all: correct the exposure, as the photo really is underexposed and lacks contrast

Here is the original. The one I had shown before was done already reworked. Let's see what this one could be changed with

As Geri was hinting, it would probably be best if you gave up on this one. It is quite soft/blurry, and the light is very poor, so even if it were sharp, it would still be very difficult to make it acceptable for here.

What about these two? Just forget about them?
