Henrik Hedde - editing advice

[dlowwa]

Good afternoon and thanks a lot for the advice on the ANZ shot!

I took a photo of a spotting location and was wondering whether a) the shot is fine as it is? I tried to match all the criteria in the guidelines. and b) how the vehicle license plate should be blurred? I tried two different ways, which would be correct?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Motive will be a subjective thing. As long as you provide adequate info about the location, could be acceptable. The other care plates will need to be blurred as well. For quality, image is suffering from oversharpening, and noise/compression.

Hello! Thanks for your help, hope the screeners like the motive then

I have tried to improve some rejected shots and would like to have your opinion whether they look better now. I don't quite know what was wrong with the Emirates A380 though. Maybe you can help.

Thanks a lot in advance!

For ANA check Histogram, it is overexposed.
Sky cargo, also overexposed, check Histogram, peak on right.
Helicopter Again clear vignetting top right, top left and bottom left corner are dark.
All images have dust spots.
For editing check http://seahawkgfx.de/Editingguide.pdf
for removing dust spots read page 25.

All likely to be rejected again, as I don't see any big differences with the rejected versions, and where you have tried to remove dust/vignetting it has been done poorly and could result in additional overprocessed rejections.

Hi! I tried the ANA once again and would like to have your opinion if it would be acceptable now, as well as some other shots.

Many thanks in advance!

Hello, thanks for your help!

A quick question about this reject. Does it look fine now?

Furthermore I have three photos which I hope are good. Thanks in advance //Henrik

Dust removal seems to have been done better, but there is still dust above wing and halos around tail.

Furthermore I have three photos which I hope are good. Thanks in advance //Henrik

Other than overexposure and possible dust (removal) issues, should be ok.

[FRA/ARNspotter]

Hi! Thanks for your advice. I tried to fix the exposure a bit and hope they'll be fine now.

What do you think about these two?

Thanks for any advice!

1. soft/blurry
2. borderline soft, poor dust removal

Hi!
Thanks Dana for your help. I suppose the Lithuanian was just too far away eventually.

Here are five photos I would love some advice on.

Thank you very much in advance!

Contrast is a bit low, and a couple of them have specks (probably bird) that you'll want to remove, but otherwise would be ok for me.

[FRA/ARNspotter]

Thanks a lot Dana, I added some more Contrast to them now.

Here are some two other photos that I'm not sure about. Thanks for any advice!

Best regards,

Henrik

Henrik, the attached 744F shows excessive heat distortion.

The Cathay 748 could have a little more contrast/saturation
