Hi,
Last tuesday, CS-TEX, the A310 that features the new livery of TP, made a small promotion flight accompanied by a film crew on an helicopter.
I was lucky enough to capture both the 310 and the heli on a single frame... but the camera misread the light and over-exposed the photo. I've dabbled a
little in PS and upoloaded... got rejected for a deserved BADEXPOSURE.
Since this is one of my favorite shots, maybe some of you with more PS skills can help me and see if it can be saved?

Try "image adjustment" then "selective color".Change the color to white in the top box. Then move the bottom "Black" slider as required to the right until as much of the overexsposure is reduced.
It don't work for every photo with this problem but it has saved a few of my overexsposed photo's.

Thank you all for your support! This forum is great!
I've followed Simon advice and (I think) I've managed to salvage the shot. Also, Fergul was right and so I went ahead and aplied a little extra USM to the tail section. After that, I reuploaded it.

Thats a heck of a lot better, well done
Please don't take this the wrong way, just trying to be helpfull here. My only worry is the jaggies on the trailing edges of the flaps on the right wing, other than that its a massive improvement. It could make it.

Hi,
No prob, glad you could help me!
I've noticed those jaggies also (after I've sent it ) ... I'll give it another try at night (I'm at work now, not much time for editing ), and if it gets better, I'll re-submitt it.
