    Still backlit and will always be backlit. Check the shadows on the aircraft.
    for the photo to be backlit, light(in this case sun) should be in front of the camera and behind the subject. In this case, it was behind the camera and behind the subject. Light on the flaps confirms this.
    Here is clear example of backlit https://forums.jetphotos.com/forum/a...899#post794899

    This is from the other end of the runway, definitely back-lit

      Explain the shadows on the tail. I for one won't comment anymore on this photo. You have asked for screener's thoughts on your photo, you got it. Now it's up to you to decide what to do with the photo.

        I went through the rules, I am no longer contesting that photo. Anyway, I shot this while shooting the sunset, hopefully, it doesn't have any issues.

        5.1 Backlit

        As a general rule: Don't take pictures with the sun in your eyes, shooting against the sun puts the visible half of the aircraft in shadow which means we can't see it to its advantage.
        As a rule of thumb: if the tail casts a shadow on the fuselage, the photo is most likely to be rejected for backlit.

        An exception to this is when the photographer is creating a silhouette sunset/sunrise type of shot.

          Ok for a silhouette shot, but soft and needs a tighter crop.

            Fixed enough? I was conservative with editing

              Looks too soft, mainly towards the nose.

                    Likely a rejection for soft.

                            Soft, and VERY noisy. Not going to comment on this photo any more.

                                Yes with both. Image is backlit, and thus not fixable.
