Pre-screening request from cadams

[cadams]

Hi everyone, was wondering if anyone could have a suss of the following shots.

I'm worried about obstruction and possibly issues in equalise/dust.

Hi all,

Will be editing a number of images I took at Istanbul that all have similar contrast to this image below. Obviously somewhat difficult weather conditions and taken in the morning.

This one was rejected for too much or too little contrast.

Should I be aiming at adding or removing contrast? And is there any general rule of thumb as to how I should try and get the contrast right first go for the trickier images like this one? Generally I feel I have a good gauge as to editing contrast for most of my images.



Kind Regards,
Chris

As you said, tricky conditions, and that is probably the answer. Just not enough you can do with this one.

I've combined your threads, but any new ones will simply be deleted.

It is unlikely you will be able to 'fix' the contrast on this image, as the lack of direct light on the subject is not something you can usually compensate for with editing.

EDITING ADVICE PLEASE: Hi all, have recently made the switch from Canon EOS 90D to an R7, shooting RAW+JPEG at the moment. I'm not a seasoned RAW person so I'm still learning to edit the images in a way that I'm satisfied with.

I shot landings for the first time with the R7, and I'm dealing with this weird outline around the aircraft when I equalise the shot (specifically around the gear and the tail). These are the JPEG images straight from the camera with minimal editing in photoshop.

I've never dealt with this before so I'm wondering if these are images that will be rejected or is this normal? The below images are the photo itself, and the equalised shots from both photoshop and the JP queue tool (the image is not currently in the queue).

Thank you,
Chris

Hi, the wavy line effects are compression artefacts from JPEG image format. To remove the artefacts, use the RAW format on the camera. Then convert it to JPEG.

Hopefully this helped

I'm well aware as to how to export RAW images.

My question is whether the outline around the aircraft, specifically the gear and tail, and any other elements of the image, are grounds for rejection.

I have never had these issues with previous cameras.

Hi, yes, it would be rejected for overprocessed. To fix it, avoid using highlights, shadows, clarity, vibrance, and dehaze sliders.

Absolutely none of those filters were used on the above image, however.

Yes, overprocessed rejection is certain. If not added in editing, then in-camera settings are causing this.

Thank you Dana, much appreciated. I'll review in-camera settings.
