Recently a well known JetPhotos photographer chose to adjust the attitude of a landing aircraft artificially in order to become more dramatic. This was discovered after acceptance and the photo was removed and the photographer reminded, politely, of our rules.

Unfortunately more uploads were then noted with considerable modification that met our definition of digital manipulation. As a result we had no choice but to advise the photographer that he could no longer upload at JetPhotos, a disappointing result.

We feel it is a timely reminder that our expectation is that photos of aircraft on our site are as they were seen by the photographer on the day. Whilst processing of the frame is expected, artificially adjusting colour, aircraft state, registrations or other gross changes cannot be tolerated.

Unfortunately this means that some frames can simply not be accepted to this site. If you take a photo of a subject only to find it is too low in the frame to be accepted simply do not upload it rather than cloning in more foreground at the bottom of the frame!

6.4 Manipulation

Altering of colors, other than adjusting the histogram and contrast is not accepted, for example: giving the sky a yellow cast to fake a sunset sky.

Black and white photos are only allowed on

* scans of B/W negatives/slides
* vintage aircraft or "vintage look alikes", i.e. retro painting schemes, replicas, etc.

Any other colour altering, including fake skies, inverting of colours, etc. is not allowed.

Any other altering during the editing process will be rejected, this means adding things that were not originally in the picture or removing significant elements of the shot. Recent examples are: addition of glare effects, altering of regs, etc.
Feel free to remove dust spots, but do not manipulate the content of the frame!

With your information I hope to make a sound decision.

I have heard many great comments regarding MAC computers for which I am considering switching to a MAC platform from a PC. My preference would be a desktop but I have not ruled out a laptop.
Does the MAC version of Photoshop provide enhanced processing and increased editing capabilities that are not available on the PC version of Photoshop? In other words, is there a technical and / or hardware advantages over the PC when editing with the MAC version Photoshop or is this just a personal preference with no real inherent processing/editing capabilities other than look and feel?
Thank you in advance for your kind and informative comments. ]]> Digital Photo Processing Forum Jim Macris http://forums.jetphotos.net/showthread.php?t=48977 Images loseing saturation http://forums.jetphotos.net/showthread.php?t=48930&goto=newpost Tue, 10 Nov 2009 11:56:58 GMT Hey guys my images seem to be losing saturation any help?

I have a problem with my second "big killer" (after "contrast"): centering
I have centered the airbus using the low-part of the windows line, as usual.
This time I have taken a rejection, due to "center".
How can I improve my picture?
Thank you in advance, best regards

This shot has just been rejected due to window glare and bad info. The second reason is absolutely right, but for the first I can't understand. First of all there wasn't any window between me and the 757, second it was cloudy. How Is it possible? Probably I don't have understood what they mean wth glare. Thank you very much everybody!

I would like to ask for your opinion on attached pic.
It's rejected because of being blurry, but it's the motion blur.
In my opinion the aircraft itself is sharp.
Please advise

I'm not used to GA photography as I cant see a reference point to use as a flat bit except for the livery on the aircraft but yet again the angle of photography is not side on.

Original:



Rotated and cropped 3:2:



Also is it good as it is or does it need a little tweaking? As I've said, its my first GA shot of my life and its quite different than spotting at LHR :grin:

http://www.jetphotos.net//viewreject_b.php?id=2728657

I have Adobe PS CS3 but I am no expert at it. What would the experts say I should use (tools and skills) in order to make it sharper, and thus making it acceptable to the db?

Greatly appreciate anyone's responses!

but I also have 1 photo Noi Bai Airport took in day time: http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.p...374959&nseq=14
