Pre Screening Advice - Robbie Mathieson

[vcruvinel]

Hi guys, can I please get some pre-screening on this one. I appreciate that the weather at the time was atrocious, and I've done my best to get it relatively okay, but want to just double check before i waste a queue slot. Many Thanks, Robbie

Robbie, this one is dark and also has contrast issues.

Thanks. Regarding the compression, what can I do in my editing process to avoid this happening? I've just started using Lightroom in the last week or so, so I'm still learning how to use it properly. Many Thanks, Robbie

Most likely noise reduction settings; any kind of noise reduction applied to areas where there is a uniform color, or smooth gradient transitioning from lighter/darker areas like you find in blue skies will tend to leave the sky looking blotchy or compressed. That is assuming of course that you are also saving your images at maximum quality. If not, you'd want to start with the latter.

1. borderline oversharpened/compression
2. borderline compression
3. oversharpened, compression
4. blurry

I'd recommend not uploading at 1920pix, since that makes the quality flaws much more apparent. #1-3 might stand a chance at a smaller resolution like 1200pix.

Hi,
Crop is too tight (a bit more space around plane is needed) and whole plane appears a bit too soft

Regards
Alex

Awesome, thanks Alex, I'll go and work on it again, many thanks.

Pre Screening Advice - Robbie Mathieson

Hi guys, would it be possible to get some prescreening on this one? Have a new laptop and am also now editing in LR rather than PS so there's quite a few differences in my workflow. Many Thanks, Rob

In this case yes, this is the ONLY time where such manipulation is allowed. Be aware that the other quality issues remain, which still might preclude the adjusted image from being accepted.

Great, thanks for the help.

Hi All, the following photo got rejected. In the screener comments, it stated that the motive reason was because of the vehicle registration plates. Am I able to blur these in photoshop? The upload guidelines doesn't specify anything in regards to vehicles. Many Thanks, Robbie

Hi all, quick question regarding the following rejection. All photos of this aircraft in the database are uploaded as registration MM62209, however, I uploaded it as registration MM-62209 as that is what is printed on the side of the aircraft. Surely the correct registration should be what it actually says on the aircraft?

No, MM62209 is the correct format. All Italian military are entered as such.
