Would be ok for me.

Okk,
I have improved the level and sharpness. For the compression in the sky I wanted to leave it for this time with a bit of grain. Is the photo acceptable now?

I don't see noise being a problem, though on second look it is a touch low in the frame. Otherwise, would be ok for me.

Hi team,
finally I managed to take a picture with a beautiful sun.

Can i have a pre screen?
Thanks in advance.

Oversharpened, and borderline for horizon (CCW) and compression.

Thanks for feedback.

Hi team,
today i made this photo.
Can i have a pre-screen for this?
Thanks.

Would be rejected for dark/contrast, soft, horizon. Not fixable.

thank you again for your suggestions. Now I have even clearer ideas. Thank you

I thought a low contrast photo would have a better chance of being recovered if saved in RAW than JPEG. So I wonder why the RAW file can control everything except contrast?

RAW files are better for recovering clipped details, be it in the shadows or highlights that would otherwise be lost in a more compressed format like a jpeg. As such, a RAW file can't 'control everything', only give you more data to work with. If an image is soft, using a RAW file will make little difference. As I have pointed out several times the poor contrast in your photos is due to the poor weather, and having more (or less) detail in the files will do nothing to fix this.

Hi team, i have a curiosity, all those previous shots that are not repairable if they were saved in RAW would have had a better chance of being recovered and be acceptable? Just to understand if it is better to save photos in JPEG or RAW.
Thanks in advance.

No, the problem was the weather, not jpeg vs. raw.

Okk.
so also in this photo there is a contrast problem?

Yes.
