Looks good to me. I just had my version of this photo rejected for various reasons.

I did get one of my pictuers of this airplane accepted here at JP. For that I am very happy.

As far as I can tell, JP published the very first picture of this airplane in the new United colors.

I get the feeling that there is just not enough to work with. You can tell by the long shadows that I took this picture right before sunset. Any screeners input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Scott

It is called "Despeckel" This tool is on Photoshop 7 and CS. Idon't know if it is on earlier versions of Photoshop.
To find it, click on "Filters">>"Noise">> then click on "Despeckel"
It does remove some grain, but softens the picture a bit. Better results using Neat Image.

Hope this helps

This photo looks allright to me, but it was rejected with "Poor lighting (backlit)" rejection reason... is there anything I can do for this one in order to get it accepted?...


Thanks for helping

There seems to be some noise very apprant on the darker sections of the fuselage and there is some apparent on the whiter parts. The photos seems quite soft (see titles), use USM at .2,200%,0 a couple of times. If you returned to teh original, while brightening the photo up, it could stand a chance at being accepted but i would bother.

There also seems to be a lot of JPEG compression visable, make sure when you save it, you save at the highest quality setting.

Cristiano, as I told you already, sometimes, the sun is not the photographer's best friend, as for example on noon, when the sun is too high. The biggest parts of your pic are simply backlit and therefore a bit underexposed, thus noisy. Add to that, that the pic is also a bit too soft.

Backlit can add a lot to a photo, but not on a "normal" side on shot.

Cheers

Thank you so much Simpleboy and Gerardo (LX-A343) for your reply and for trying to help me! It's no doubt about what's wrong with this pic (except that concerning jpeg compression, as I always use the higest quality settings when save), but it's a pity 'cause it's a "wave pic", and I don't now if I can fix it to be accepted...I'll try...
Once again, thnkx for sharing with me all your knowledge about how to photograph...with your help, someday I'll be a great jp photographer (you can bet on that ).

Best regards,

[Pikas]

Dude I don't know what's gong on but all of a sudden my internet went wierd (like this page is twice as wide as it should be), and your first photo link in your post was a redirect to this:

I really really really love this photo but I recently had it rejected for Blurry. I'd really love to get this on JP.NET! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is the edited ver. that was rejected: http://www.jetphotos.net/viewreject.php?id=540520

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I think you can all agree this is great lighting and of course a great bird!

Thanks a lot,

Well the pic is blurry and nearly oversharpened already. Unfortunately there is not much you can do to save a blurry pic. I think it will be one for your personal collection.

[Curtis K]

I personally do not see the blurriness and I always always always get undersharpened (soft) rejections which leads me to sharpen a ton.

[LX-A343]

If you don't see the blurriness, check the nose area again. It's more than evident.

Gerardo

[seahawk]

Yep, there the blur is clearly visible.

Just look how unsharp the nose gone looks, while the titles are already showing small jaggies.

So it is not soft, but blurry.

An easy way the check this for yourself is to intentionally oversharpend a pic in your editiing software. If some areas do not respond to the sharpening (or clearly much less then others), then the pic is most likely blurry and not just soft.

Can somebody help this dumb photographer here

I do understand the bad color rejection because I took the photo through glass window but in link #2 the pic was also rejected due to bad cropping. But strangely I didn't crop the pic .

P/s: I dun have a good photo editing software like photoshop

[seahawk]

All pics are soft to start with.

1. seems you understand the problem
2. You did not crop, but you should have. Crop the pic so that you cut away all this empty space on the left and the right of the pic. Crop from nose to tail.
3. seems also clear

Try downloading "The Gimp" it is freeware and nearly as powerfull as PS. Otherwise there are many cheaper programms like Paint Shop Pro, Photo Impact ...

[atcvector]

I have worked and worked on this photo. I cannot get the cropping and the constrast/brightness correct. The sky always comes out very grainy after resizing and I cannot seem to get a good effect with neatimage. Any help would be great.

Thanks.

Same plane, same day? Pick one and work it.

I would adjust the mid-level curves a bit as it appears overall dark, then re-check your levels. On a new layer, mask the a/c and sharpen it some more, it does appear soft.

Do this to the original file.

[dlarenas]

Thank you very much for your tips! Now the pic was accepted
