Majky737 - Editing Advice

[Majky737]

Hello,

Today I made 2 photos and later edited them, however, weather was not the best and sun was most of the time behind clouds. I made what I could but I am still affraid that light conditions made contrast too poor.

I attached both photos, however my question is going mainly to number 2, if is contrast at least borderline (or still adjustable to gain better result) or not. Thank you for your time.

Hello,

I would like to ask for prescreening of following photo, as I have doubts about contrast, sharpeness/softness and compression.

Thank you for your time.

Some noise/compression visible in the sky, and contrast is borderline.

hm, ok, however, I am not sure how to adjust it for better results. I mean, I try to adjust contrast, but right peak of histogram is going up, so I am affraid if the picture is not overexposed. To be more specific, here is attached edit:



I don't know. Do you have any advice how to adjust it?

As I was hinting, I'd at least start by bringing down the contrast.



I think we've discussed this one enough, however, so that's the last I'll say about it.

Soft, and borderline dark/contrast again. It's not terrible, but I think the odds are it would be rejected.

Ok thank you. So one last attempt with another image of this frame:

Softness showing up a bit more with the decrease in contrast. Borderline for both I'd say.

Thank you. I made one more version, could you check if contrast is better (not too harsh and not too low) on new edit?

Thank you.

Slightly better, though contrast is still a bit too harsh.

Hello,

today I have received this reject:
https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=8826989

So I adjusted histogram via curves, hoping to resolve contrast and exposure problem. I kindly ask to prescreen attached photo, if it is acceptable. Thank you.

Hi,

I have added some extra sharpening to the previous image, however, has been rejected for soft. So now I have adjusted it more. Can you tell me if the sharpening is ok now? Thank you

Marian

Still soft maybe even somewhat blurry.

Hello,

I have some difficultys with the attached photo. To make long story short:

- is the contrast on photo good enought to be accepted, or should I try to adjust it more?
- is the motive acceptable, as pilot is visible on the photo?

Thank you
Marian

Contrast and motive are fine. Sharpness will be an issue.
