    I think it might be, the crop was 1619x2428, how's this bit more sharpening doing?
    I'd guess probably still a rejection, but it's your call.

      Yeah, I do not want to waste a slot before I squeeze in more photos before winter comes...

      So I retook the photo, along with other 4 night (dusk) shots, which is a topic I am good at handling. I tried your level approach to adjust contrast, and how are these looking?

        1. soft, horizon
        2, 5. borderline dark/harsh contrast
        3. soft, dirty, borderline horizon/vignetting
        4. soft, overprocessed (too much noise reduction)

          Can you tell me more about the horizon? I thought I aligned the verticals for tower. But I couldnt find a reference for 3. The wheels?

          Update: I fixed 3's softness, vigentting, and horizon. Now I know what you meant by saying "soft." This means when I zoom in, I should see the details very sharp as well, not just when I view the image 100%. So now it is uploaded. Also fixed 1's horizon, but still not sure which part is soft? I think the details are bit soft by nature but still sharper than the DTW tower images I saw in the DB (but these images are also mostly shot a long time ago). This time it is not from a harsh crop. I had 3293x4940 with ISO 2500+1/4000 shutter speed. I tried to add more sharpening to compensate the noise reduction, but still it doesn't seems to be improving.

            Verticals appear to be leaning left.

              I figured by adding a vertical guideline. It was small, but is visible.

              Sorry, seems like the update did not get to you in time... Gonna say it again:

                I need some suggestion for these 2 airport overviews (ramp).. I don't think it is to the quality that can be accepted, but I really need some suggestions to make it work

                And... Is the heat hazing affecting the Delta?

                Also wanted to do a biz jet collection, and how do you think about these?

                    Oversharpened/heat hazed on the last one, but first two ok for me.

                      Thanks! Can you give me some advice on these two?

                          what about things like exposure and contrast? I ve never uploaded anything like this so i don't know where to go about.

                            They look a bit blurry and oversharpened to compensate. If the originals are not blurry, a better edit may help.

                              Unfortunately they are blurry because DTW has terrible terminal driveway (loose structure that vibrates), which shakes the camera. I am gonna give it a try for the sunset as it still look somewhat salvageable, but the night one is also out of focus I think, so definitely a no go for the night one. Thanks for the help as always.

                                Hello,

                                I need some advice on the following photos:

                                The first photo is aiming for the first registration, but I think it is soft (due to great cropping) and backlit. But maybe they are borderline. Do you think there is a chance?

                                The other four are my test runs for larger pixels as I got approved for larger pics. I wonder if they are soft.

                                Thanks in advance!
