wkd001- Editing advice

[dlowwa]

I've received this reject lately https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10630715 and especially the arifats are striking me.
I've only added some contrast and a bit of saturation and saved twice on the highest quality

I have really no idea how those white lines got there.
I was shooting between the wires of a fence and the wires got some sharp ends at several points.

If you were shooting through a fence, that's likely what was mistaken for compression.

At second I would like prescrreen on some photos.

1. soft, contrast horizon
2. soft, contrast, borderline overprocessed
3. soft

[wkd001]

1-3. borderline soft (ok for me)
4-5. soft

Contrast a bit harsh on some of them, but ok for me.

Thanks for that Dana,

I've queued the first two after some slight rework.

Maybe it's something with the sun coming from the LH side here.
At second step I've only added (apparently too much) sharpening and saved again on highest quality

Potential issues are sharpness, horizon, glare, contrast, processing.

I think it's too soft and the is some kind of glare/reflection on the LH-side of the photo. (taken from the terminal.

Another original as the one from the previous batch.

Thanks in Advance.

I went to a new spot for me and got some photos which make me unsure and I would like a prescreen on these.

1-3. borderline soft (ok for me)
4-5. soft

Borderline for me, but wouldn't necessarily recommend an appeal.

Thanks for that Dana.
As I found another layng of softness after another check, I will indeed refrain from appealing.

For all I could see potential issues with horizon, dust, and softness. With the China Cargo, the sun just popped out of the clouds and the grass still dark, so apparently also contrast/exposure issue.
The final two were taken in very low light with long shadows of the fence, wires, and trees reflecting on the aircrafts, especially on the 77W so both could also have issues with that.
And maybe there is more stuff II could have missed.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I've received this reject today. https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10576167.
Compared to other soft reject I've had. I have serious doubt that this one is really soft.
Hard lines are visible, ok a little less on the belly, due to a small reflection.
Any extra guidance would be appreciated.

A bit dark (histogram confirms this), but would have been ok for me.

Thanks Dana, Could an appeal stand a chance for this one?



A bit soft, and most of the frame is dark/in shadow, so likely an issue with that.

Ok thanks, I've tried a lot of these shots, so I will look for another one.

Best Regards

I can imagine it being soft. (I see good parts myself, but also soft important parts) But I disagree with the underexposed.
In my eyes the tail and the left engine are close to being blown out already.

Same story as the rejected photo , I've just deleted this one out of my queue


I think this one is soft too.



A total prescreen as I've never done something like this before.

Thanks in advance

For getting things better I made a re-edit of the rejected version again and I will show that now and ask for pre-screen.
Again I did no heavy editing only adding some contrast, removing dust and adding sharpening (sensor is dirty unfortunately,and no time for cleaning yet)

This one is soft.

[wkd001]

1. borderline soft/dark/compression. If the original is good, something happening with your editing.
2. soft
3. technically not obstructed, but clutter is a bit distracting, so borderline.

Thanks for that Dana,

Apparently I've made a mistake and I want to apologise for that and for wasting your valuable time on that

This edit of the Embraer E2 in the previous post was taken from a different RAW-file from the same aircraft as he rejected version and it took heavier cropping which would make clear at least partly the compression and softness issue.

The RAW-file of the reject I can't upload here due to the size limitations here.

Thanks in Advance

I've taken another snap of the rejected photo, edited it and want to offer it for prescreening now.,

I would also like a prescreen on these two photos

1. borderline soft/dark/compression. If the original is good, something happening with your editing.
2. soft
3. technically not obstructed, but clutter is a bit distracting, so borderline.

[wkd001]

I don't really see any oversharpening, but there is some banding/compression faintly visible in the sky.



1. borderline soft/noisy
2. dark, borderline soft
3-4. soft/heat haze

Thank you for all Dana,

There were som ethin layers of clouds visible in the background, Maybe they are the issue for creating artefacts.
Did not a lot of editing on this one, only adding some contrast and sharpening, but curious if it stands a chance now.

I would also like a prescreen on these two photos


INew edit of this one where I've tried to adress the issues you've mentioned, but honestly I'm afraid that the conditions and the softness (I'm almost sure it's still there )
will kill this one



Curious if all the material is not too disturbing ( the aircraft should be unobstructed though) and at least the horizon/ softness and contrast.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I got home from holiday this week and during my holiday I've received this reject https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10425984

I don't really see any oversharpening, but there is some banding/compression faintly visible in the sky.

Also I would like prescreen on four photos.

1. borderline soft/noisy
2. dark, borderline soft
3-4. soft/heat haze

Hello,

I got home from holiday this week and during my holiday I've received this reject https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10425984
The oversharpen I don;t really see tbh and jpg compression I've never had that one before,
Now I do see some strange kind of almost horizontal lines in the check for dust tool, But i really don't know how they got there.
I've only added some contrast and sharpening and nothing more.
I also save the final jpg on the highest quality possible
This photo was taken just after the rejected photo and got accepted https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/10702643
So, maybe someone could help me here, bacause I'm a litlle confused on this one,

Also I would like prescreen on four photos.


I've had this one queued, but deleted it because I think it's way too soft.


Taken out of the window of my holiday charter, but thinking it's at leat too soft and dirty, and even thinking it;s unfixable
But it was the only option to get an unobstructed view here.

Possible issues for me here, soft, contrast, horizon, heathaze and maybe color


Same story as previous.

Thanks in advance
