Hi
I've had a few shots rejected for over processing because of halo's.
My processing to be honest is fairly rudimentary, crop, straighten, clean if required & light, sometimes contrast if needed, so I'm not sure how halo's appear.
I always choose an image where the subject fills the frame & therefore doesn't need too much cropping, but I'm wondering if the original image is the issue rather than the processing.
Having said that I've had images rejected, and accepted that were taken within minutes of each other, adjusted by me in the same way, and one is ok & the other over processed.
Of the latest rejection - 5503653 - the histogram is fine, as with a high proportion of the others, and I'm inclined to be guided by the histogram, but there are still halo's.
I'm not challenging whether there are halo's or not, I'd just like some help & advice on how to identify the issue, how to avoid it, and how it prevent it during the processing process.
Is the original image, because of incorrect camera settings likely to be the main culprit?
Any help & advice would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks.
