    I think that I finally understand what it's all about after comapring previous shots and these , are they ok now ? From the whole "landing sequence" they have the most direct lighting.

    Earlier I thought that "Too much or too little contrast" was only matter of editing...
    and few more, new ones: Click image for larger version

    P.S. 1. Would it be possible to point out "flat light" reason instead of "too much or too little contrast" (personally I think it would be less "misguiding") when rejecting the photo?
    2. Is it possible to have my forum name changed?

    Ok, I'll keep that in mind next time when shooting, and I'll try editing LH A343 from the same series but few shots later where the light is more direct and ask here later, thanks for the hints !

    I know it might be hard to say because every photo is different, but how should I edit "bad weather shots" to make them acceptable ? Because I've noticed in my experience with Jetphotos, that 95% of my rejections are shots without sun on aircraft, recently this one got accepted https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/9373644
    Maybe increasing clarity would help ?
    I mean something like that in terms of fixing them:

    Yes, these all have issues with contrast/color, but due to the overcast/flat light, I doubt they are fixable as simply adding more contrast is not likely to make them acceptable.
    Thanks !

    P.S. If there's a contrast issue, tell me if it's too much, or too little please.
    Thanks.

    In this picture https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=7396715 contrast should be increased right ?

    I would only try to correct https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=7026310 and forget the other.

    On id=7026310 try to add more shadows. A quick edit (and certainly not the best possible) on the left side here ...

    Ah, I'm sorry, I've just noticed an email. Thanks.
    BTW Would You make these messages from screeners available on the 'rejected photos' list ? Because, sometimes email arrives later, and user is unable to see the message till email's arrival. This is just my suggestion .
