  • Hi there

    Would someone be kind enough to offer me some advice on the following image:

    JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!


    Dark / Underexposed
    Too much or too little contrast
    Dirty Scan / CMOS Dust spots

    The histogram looks OK to me. Please advise what I should look to change?

    The dust spots did not show up in Lightroom, as far as I recall and are very faint in the check that you have recently added (which is very helpful). I thought that there was some tolerance in place

    Thanks for any advice.

    Cheers
    Mark

      Just a bit dark, but needs more contrast (almost looks backlit). If dust spots are visible unequalized, it will be a rejection no matter how faint they are.

      • Thanks for your quick reply. I will add some contrast and try to lighten. It wasn't backlit, although sun was quite high.

        Cheers

            Hello, i think it needs some CCW. Maybe about 0.8 would be ok.
            Cheers,

              3. Chocks are fine, so shouldn't have been a obstr./clutter rejection, but again awkward crop, especially with the door cut.
              4. This is a very tricky one with conflicting verticals all over the place. Yes, verticals in the center are generally favored, but strong verticals (like buildings) are favored over less reliable ones like light posts. Overall, the ramp in the background does appear to slope right, so some CCW rotation is needed.
              Thanks for a point by point feedback Dana. Will see if I can re-work some of the compositions.

                Why is this 1 rejected? What is missing?

                  Hello,
                  Although I'm not a team member, it's seems to me that you left one blank character
                  (space bar) before the registration G-JZHA .
                  Check it out.

                  Best regards,
                  Erez.

                    Thank you
                    You added a space before the reg, i.e. " G-JZHA" instead of "G-JZHA"

                    Just to check yourself: If you click on the reg in your rejected photo, it opens the link "http://www.jetphotos.com/showphotos.php?regsearch= G-JZHA". Result is 0 photos. It should open "http://www.jetphotos.com/showphotos.php?regsearch=G-JZHA" with 29 photos (at the time I write this).

                      No, don't give it CCW. It needs the opposite, CLOCKWISE rotation.

                        • OK so I'm still learning the composition required for JetPhotos, on the following picture, do I just need to cut out the gap on the left side and re-upload it?

                          JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!

                              Oh yes thank you that makes sense, I keep thinking centered horizontally but not vertically! Thank you! I will reframe and re-upload we shall see!
