Joe Waxman - editing help

[Joe Waxman]

Hello all! I've been editing some recent photos and noticed some pretty bad halos... Any tips on preventing/getting rid of them?

I put this photo in the queue, then clicked the 'check for dust' box and it revealed some pretty bad halos...



P.S. I'm not using any clarity or dehaze when I edit.

Aaaaaand I fixed my own problem ! Turns out I just brought the highlights slider down too far. Brought it back up to 0, and voilą!

Indeed, shadow/highlights, clarity, vibrance, and de-haze editing features all tend to cause such halos, thus the overprocessed rejections that usually go along with them.

If you ever have a problem like that again there's a great thread with a process to get rid of halos caused by the shadows/highlights tool. It doesn't fix halos caused by other things though.

#4 is the one dealing with halos but there's loads of other great stuff in there.

Cropping Help

Hello, I recently spotted an MD-11 that diverted to Norfolk, and I'm not really sure how to crop it... This is what I've come up with so far... Any advice?

A bit tight for my tastes, but crop should be acceptable.

Can't prescreen an image if you won't actually be able to upload it.

Alright, let's try this again. I'd like to get this one prescreened... Sorry about that.

Borderline contrast (bit harsh), and motive. If the faces are deemed identifiable, then it's a motive rejection.

Borderline soft/contrast, but would be ok for me.

Looks a bit dark, otherwise ok.

Ah ok, thanks. Is this any better? Also, found a couple Costa Rica shots I'd like to be prescreened.
