    DO NOT USE HORIZONTALS when there are good, solid building verticals available. A vertical will always be vertical regardless of the angle of view. A horizontal is only ever truly so when you view it at exactly 90 degrees. The only exception is when you have a water horizon to use. Regarding runways...they frequently have a slope to them and are unreliable.
    Your shot is leaning slightly to the left.

      Reject for Horizon, what do you think?
      Please check your rejection email, as the screener left a message indicating how to fix the problem.

      This is not a good idea. As Brian has said, always use vertical references first, not horizontal ones like building roofs or runways. If there are strong vertical references visible in the frame (as there are in this image), they will always take precedence - unless the actual horizon is visible.

              1-4 all borderline oversharpened, and cut off (awkward crops on some of them)

                Are these two good enough for 1920p and the crop ok?

                      AC looks fine, but the SQ is borderline for oversharpening/heat haze. You might want to try that one at a smaller size than 1900pix.

                          I need advice on this one

                          JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!


                          Unfortunaly the screener wrote nothing in the mail, so i do not know, what is exactly wrong.
                          I didnt do anything special, no play with saturation, weird filters or anything like that.

                            Hi,

                            there are editing Halos all around the Plane. Those appear, if you use the "shadow/tiefen" and "highlight/lichter" tool and/or the clarity. So if you have used those, leave the regulators at "0" and the problem should be solved .

                            Hope this helps, have a nice evening!
                            Best Regards from Germany,
                            Julian S.​

                                Or better this one in sunshine, but with less resolution?
