Had this photo rejected twice now for contrast. Can I get some opinion on what I should do to make this acceptable? First one was over contrast I could tell, but I have no idea for the second one. Can the rejection be changed to say which one it is, like a rejection for too much contrast and a rejection for to little contrast? This is by far the most common rejection I get and I am almost always confused as to which it is.

Hi Nick,

I didn't screen this pictures but unfortunately the high cloud layer leads to a trouble for contrast, while the plane looks good, the sky looks blown away, that's why you are getting the contrast rejection. It's leaning towards an overexposed rejection reason too. Do you have its raw file available? I can help you out if you have it

Thanks for offering to help.

I dont have a raw, mainly because it was taken on an iPhone (normally dont do this). Have gotten a few up in the past.

Hello,

https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=7210699

Question about this rejection. I agree with the missing catagories, missed the Warbird check box by mistake. But Im confused about the invalid hot. I included the hot for the new decal added to the aircraft, not seen in any other photo. I have seen other photos accepted with a new or removed decal that are hot. Such as these:

Thanks in advanced!

There is no other image of that side of the aircraft, so there is no need to accept it as hot since there is nothing to update. The two images you reference had previous versions that showed a clear difference to the updated image.

Looking to give this shot another go with this new edit. How does this edit look? Any improvements or suggestions?

Image is blurry and heavily compressed.

[nickflightx]

Is is possible to somehow fix those? Or is the image just too blurry? Not sure exactly how to fix the compression issue.
