      Appreciate you looking at these for me, Dana. About as expected with your feedback. Might give them a quick additional pass, but just might not be worth it on this set.

        There is a green-ish/yellow cast to most of them, and light halos. Better processing might remedy the issues (except #2 which looks a little blurry on second viewing).

          Noted - will give it a go and see where it nets out. Thanks for the detailed follow up feedback.

            Another round! The stupid tree branch is my concern with the AE shot, but hoping that's okay. I'll live if that is a deal breaker. Also, there is another aircraft way in the distance on the Cargolux shot, not a dust spot.

              Other than dust spots and softness on #3, don't see any major quality issues.

                Argh, it's that wingtip on the left side of the frame. I thought I would be pushing the limit on it. Might give it a touch more sharpening to see if it helps it any, but this might just have to go into the personal collection.

                  Looking for a little bit of additional advice on these two photos to keep in mind going forward.

                  Both were rejected, Lufthansa for Over Processed / Bad postprocessing and Swiss for Bad Composition (bad framing / aircraft not centered). Unfortunately, the screener didn't offer any additional feedback in the email (not that they're expected or required to do so.)

                  As far as where I'm looking at these again, I'm now seeing a some small halos in the equalized version of the Lufthansa, like just above the WiFi hump and guessing maybe that's where the processing rejection came. Also wondering if any screeners have any feedback on if there's a better way to frame (or crop?) the Swiss 773.

                  I'm very appreciative of the great feedback I've received thus far. Really helping me become a more mindful photographer.

                    Both are borderline and probably would have been ok for me. Swiss is a bit low, and the LH has slight halos yes, but not that bad imho. Should be easy fixes for both.

                      Great! Thanks again for your continued feedback.

                        Giving those two a second go once my queue opens back up. Went through my latest workflow on Lufthansa which hopefully avoids the adjustments that result in the halos. Also raised the Swiss a little in the crop to avoid a bad comp rejection again. Hope these two seem to be alright.

                        Also throwing an additional pair I'd like a pair of eyes on if someone has a moment.

                            A new set of shots for some feedback. Primarily wondering if the contrast levels are acceptable or things are a bit too dark.

                              Hello Kevin,

                              I'm not screener but for me:

                              1 seems ok, can be a bit overexposed

                              2 seems ok, add contrast

                              3,4,5 ok

                              Regards

                              Olivier

                                Borderline contrast issues on a couple of them, but don't see any major issues.
