    I've learnt a lot mostly from the A.net forum on how to improve my PS technique and would love to learn more and maybe turn some of those borderline pictures into acceptable ones!

    Can someone please tell me where I can find this Jason's PS tutorial?
    Also any other guides to PS7 would be great, Particularly in the aviation photography area.

    Thanks.

        Damn.. How did you get all that grain out.. I've got some grainy images but I've given up on uploading and now also on fixing. Some tips on the technique used would be nice.

        Let me know if you want some of the grainy pics. Also have some grainy pics in bad weather, great water fx but loads of grain.

        Any help welcome.

        Thanks,

          Too much noise?

          Hello,

          New to this uploading malarkey (been getting wallpaper from jetphotos.net for quite some time).

          I thought I had a photo of a good quality to share with the outside world but it got rejected for "Too much noise"

          This confuses me somewhat - can anyone elaborate on what "noise" is on a purely visual medium??

            Andy,
            Visual "noise" is most likely to be interpreted as grain. Though it is hard to say what the particular screener had in mind.

              Can someone explain me what the setting do when using USM? (so threshold etc)

                Why don't you just try them and see the results first hand. You will understand the cause and effect much better that way.

                or...

                go to one of the photo sites and read.

                  Punkydawg,

                  As Jeff said noise in a digital photo is generally seen as grain. It can also be seen sometimes as a color shift or as overall softness of the image. Your photo also had a slightly tilted horizon. This is one of the first things you should correct in post-processing a photo.

                  I worked on your photo a little and came up with this:

                      All of a sudden I have got these rejects. I dont think that they are fair rejects. You must also look at what camera I use and at my previous uploads. That photos are not beter than these rejects.Dont compare them with photographers with better equiptment.

                      I hope you can shed some light at my rejects. From the screeners serious replies, thanx in advance.

                        The screeners try to help with the rejection reasons. You should really read the mails and try to figure out yourself, what's wrong with the rejected pics.

                        Here some further advices:
                        JetPhotos.com is the biggest database of aviation photographs with over 5 million screened photos online!

                        A tad more sharpness will surely help.
                        The rear part of the fuselage doesn't show any details anymore. Perhaps working on color tones and levels will help here.

                        Clearly overexposed. The white areas doen't show any details anymore.

                        Again a bit unsharp. A tad more USM (for example) will help here. The levels and tones could also been improved to get more contrast.

                        No comment here. Read the rejection message again. It's clear enough.

                        Cheers

                            basically charles, what you have to do is to remove the grain/noise on that image using the neatimage application. think this can be found at www.neatimage.com. secondly you have to make it brighter i think its abit dark at the moment. also i think it might help if you levelled the image, maybe 0.5 degree CCW.

                              I have a question and maybe also an sugestion.

                              Even that photo beeing a tails shot,wouldnīt be better if you had the Swiss vertical stabilizator(the little wing on the tail,in case you didnīt understood that) on the photo too?I donīt think that could be a rejection reason,of course,but I think that the photo would be a little better(I liked it anyway )

                                Help With A Reject

                                What can I do with this reject? I realize that it was cloudy overcast weather but the plane itself came out real nice. Now on the original the lower fuselage/bottom was dark, not showing any detail so I created a levels layer and brightened only that part. Should I have left it dark? I can take this version and increase the contrast on the overall which would make the bottom more dark but it just doesnt look right then.
