    Probably a bit too dark/lacking color.

    Comment


    • Added some saturation and brightened up the photo a bit to account for the lack of exposure. Please let me know if this fixes the issues you brought up. Thank you

        Better I suppose, but the more you edit like this, the more you'll approach it being overprocessed.

        • Went back, started from scratch, changed the WB to have more color per the evening sun, added some exposure and some slight saturation (less than previous photo) to help the color pop a bit more. Same level of sharpness as before too. Please let me know if this photo is sufficient. Hopefully third times the charm. Thank you.

            Very likely a rejection for color/overprocessing. Quite oversaturated to my eyes.

            • Last attempt, I hope that by redoing the white balance helped with the color issue and decreased the saturation significantly fixes the issues. Thank you for your time and effort with these edits. I will not attempt another edit after this one. Thank you.

                Soft, and borderline color.

                • Looking for feedback:

                  1) I know the flagpole and lightpole in background seem skewed, but the plane looks level as well as the concrete blocks it sits on (imho), would you see any issues with the horizon or see any potential for a trip up while in the queue? Also, I could not find any serial number associated with this aircraft and the registration on scramble.nl isn't much help either

                    1. horizon ok; if you can't find cn on scramble, generally means it's pretty difficult to find so should be ok. Just leave a note that you tried there.
                    2. borderline contrast
                    3. horizon ok I think

                      2) for this hanger photo, is contrast, exposure and horizon sufficient?

                      3) Gate guardian in Colorado, any issues with horizon or contrast (do not be fooled by carwash building behind, its building is odd shaped)

                      5) so this is a weird one, this is a Martin MGM-13 Mace tactical missile on display in Colorado. It has a USAF registration. Is this photo acceptable as an aircraft? Is this photo acceptable with the fence in the way (in order to get whole side profile shot, some fence had to be included) would this be dinged as an obstruction?

                        A bit dark, and maybe a touch of CCW needed.

                            Night Shot category for 4 & 5.

                            Yes, contrast.

                            Contrast potentially, but would be ok for me. Also soft.

                            No, but overprocessed, as the center of the frame is darker than the edges.

                            Only softness.

                                #5 should be ok, the rest still borderline for original reasons. 1 & 4 probably not able to improve more due to light.
