Whatdjarvis - Editing Advice

Took one more crack at it. Added more sharpening and noise reduction and also tried to address the vignetting.

Thanks again for being so helpful! May just need to start from scratch again.

Too much processing on this one. It would be rejected for contrast, compression, oversharpening, and overprocessed. So far the best of any edits has been the one from post #28.

Good to know! I will try to get things a little sharper from the camera and work on the editing in my next batch.

Thanks for the help dlowwa!

Would be rejected for soft, compression, and possibly centering.

Thanks dlowwa.

Tried adding a little bit more sharpness through unsharp mask filter in photoshop but looking back at original it may have started out just a bit too soft to save.

Also, as far as compression. Original was at 3000px long edge and I went straight down to 1280 using bicubic in photoshop. Maybe there is a better approach to improve compression? I am exporting with jpg 100% quality.

Thanks for all your help as always,

Sorry, still looks pretty bad. If you're applying some kind of noise filter, I'd look at removing that from your process.

[whatdjarvis]

Yeah here is an edit with only sharpness added but no noise reduction. It definitely looks a lot better than the last one in my opinion, retains a lot more detail without the noise reduction filter.

A little too soft for acceptance, but otherwise not too bad. Vignetting somewhat noticeable.

Thanks! Will try to give the next set of photos a little sharper to start with!

I'll give it a go with a fresh picture next time!

Hi again!

Can someone take a look at these three? Also, number 1, N338FR, does not appear to be in the database and the plane looks to have been constructed in 8/2018. Would that make it a hot photo if it is acceptable when submitting?

Thanks!
Jarvis
