        Thanks a lot Dana,

        The last four will enter the queue. The Korean already did with some increased exposure.

        Any thoughts on these three would be appreciated.

        Concerned about sharpness, contrast, exposure and color.
        All also taken around sunset.

            Thanks a lot Dana.
            I would like advice about five (almost) new ones.

            At first about a re-edit of #2 from the previous post.

            All with long focal lenghts so concerned about contrast and heat haze on all of them. On the CX I have also doubt about the tail being backlit.

            Thanks in Advance.

                Thank you Dana.

                Will try 2 and 3 and see what to do with 4 and 5. First remains personal.

                Don't know if this also belongs to the 24 hrs rule, if so answer tomorrow, but I think not as it's no pre-screen request.

                Got this one rejected yesterday for Blurry https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=7199791.

                I'm dazed about it as I really don't know whats blurry on this one .

                Could someone explain to me please, or is appealing an idea.

                Thnx in advance.

                  Don't think it's blurry, but there might be a little heat haze on the front half, or even just how you've sharpened it kind of gives it that appearance. If the full-size isn't actually blurry, maybe just try re-processing it.

                    I checked the original and there is too much heat haze what I did miss apparently while editing it.
                    So I won't spend any energy on it anymore.

                    Could you (or someone else of course) give advice about these?
                    All taken on a sunny, but windy and heat hazed day.

                      Contrast a bit harsh on all, and crop is pretty tight on the last one.

                        Thanks Dana, Will try 1-3 with some slight rework as original crop on #4 is also questionable,

                        If anyone has time to check/pre-screen these it would be appreciated.

                            Thanks Dana,

                            Should I select civil for the Dutch Police helicopter?
                            I'm not used to uploading these?

                            I do have another question.
                            Yesterday I received this reject https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=7220061 for the famous too much or too litlle contrast.
                            I don't really understand this one and there was no explanation given.
                            There was enough sunlight and I had the sun not ideal, but close to me.
                            I could think two reasons.
                            1- just the clouds and the almost white aircraft.
                            2- not enough dark tones/shadows as there was also a small gap on the left side on the histogram I saw on the reject page.
                            3- both of them ...

                            Thanks in advance.

                              Contrast is a bit too harsh.

                                OK Dana,

                                Could you be a litlle more specific, what's exactly too much in the contrast.
                                Just for learning for myself.
                                First time for me to have a reject for too much contrast.
                                Think myself saturation, but absolutely not sure.

                                Thanks in Advance.
