    Couldn't tell you for certain then. Usually that kind of compression is a result of a filter (especially NR) being applied. Maybe you didn't apply a specific filter, but there was NR done in camera or when converting from RAW?

      So I made some investigation and looks like it was there right on output file from camera. I don't know, maybe some filter was applied, I just don't remember if I changed any settings. However, compression is on all pictures of that two planes, so they are lost. Pity, but thank you for your help and time.

      Meanwhile, I have received reject:
      JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!


      I reworked this one using curves (weather was not the best but I still think there was enought light to tune this photo), I will be happy if you can say your feedback (especially contrast issues).

        Still very likely a contrast rejection.

        • Hi,

          First of all, I want to apologize for using one photo from my queue in following question, but I don't know how to show point of my question without it. So, when I have photo on queue and I hit "check for dustspots" button, I get image like this:
          Click image for larger version

          In red circle, I see some unusual objects. As I am not sure if this is jpeg compression, I open image again in PS, but here I don't see these objects:

          So question which I wanted to ask is:
          Which equalized version should I believe more? PS one or JP one? I think, there is nothing wrong on unequalized version as well on PS one. In the past, somebody wrote on this forum that JP equalizer is stronger then PS Equalize function - is this information correct?

            Yeah, just looks like compression. Without seeing the actual image in question, can't say whether it would be an issue when screened.

            • Hi,

              I have received another reject, this time due Bad Colors. What is wrong with this photo? Colors looks fine to me, is there any color cast?

                White balance is too warm (yellow).

                  I made a little adjustment. Is the new edit somehow better?

                  Thank you.

                    Maybe a touch too much magenta, but would be ok for me.

                      I made some adjustments as well. However, I am not sure if issues are fixed. Can you take a look?
                      Many thanks.

                        Borderline contrast (blown out sky) but would also be acceptable for me.

                          • Hello,

                            I have here one reject for overexposure:

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


                            I made a new edit (attached), however, I am unsure about exposure/contrast. Opinion of someone else is more then welcome.

                            Thank you
                            Marian
