As an example, the second image is 1280pix and has a significant amount of background detail, so I would expect a normally compressed file to be in the 400-500k size. Yours is only 250k, which would indicate a higher amount of compression than normal.

    I was wondering what I could do to fix this shot? I am also scratching my head to the heat distortion since it doesn't seem like there is any.

    The top of the fuselage has that wavy appearance that is a tell-tale sign of heat distortion. Some sharpening, contrast adjust (more contrast), and perhaps color adjustment (there is a cyan cast) could help improve it.

    I'm not sure to figure out what "bad motive" is referred to...

    thanks, Fabrizio
    I would substitute Motive for Obstruction/clutter. There is just too much distracting clutter in the foreground. It could also be that the screener selected Motive by mistake, as the checkbox for that is next to the box for Obstruction/Clutter.

    Of course I can make a crop with centered aircraft
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]8333[/ATTACH]
    but it will be "just an aircraft flying over some unrecognizable masts" which is not so interesting as the first crop in my opinion.

    So I'm interesting if the first crop is acceptable or will be rejected for "aircraft not centered" reason?
    Thanks in advance!
    I would accept the 1st crop but it would even look better if you could have some space in front of the plane and behind the boat

    Regards
    Alex
