How's this one?

Too dark and nearly backlit.

Looks like it would be better at a lower resolution, like 1280.

Took this this evening. First long exposure I've taken that may have a chance. Any advice or is it good to go?

Tail looks like it might be a bit blown out, but otherwise quality looks ok.

They look OK. The classic side-on shots 2 and 4 would look better, if you left some more space on the left and on the right side of the aircraft.

Ah okay thanks for the reply! I tend to crop closer though (unless there is something important in the background) as I believe it is better to focus as much as possible on the aircraft. If that isn't an issue for acceptance, which it hasn't been in the past, I will keep it due to personal preference.

Did a bit of terminal spotting in Denver yesterday, and was just wondering if either of these looked acceptable. Thanks!

1. color, overexposed, borderline contrast
2. obstruction (or cut off, if you want to consider the tug part of the scene)

I went to Heathrow today, and the weather turned nasty pretty quickly. I was wondering if any of these shots had a chance. I have my doubts about most of them but wanted to see what you had to say. Thanks!


Edit: I have put these in the queue. Not requesting pre-screening for these anymore.

Borderline oversharpened, but probably ok.

Tried a different approach to my editing of these shots. Figured I'd only submit one to see if it is at least saveable, then go from there.

Would be rejected for contrast, color, soft, and possibly vignetting.
