Hi Prajay,

I like the 737 shot, very soothing colours. The pilot is a distraction in the second one, not easy to get that right but them's the breaks!

Really like the first one Prajay; I'd be surprised if it wasn't accepted.

Thanks for the Feedback guys!

The cockpit shot rejection came as surprise to me since I already had a shot with a bit of the face of a pilot.

Really? He cut half the engine and the wing root.

As to the second, the mistake was the location.....it wasn't Farnborough. rotfl

....some people have no sense of humor.

For once I agree with Jeff Smile

I would really want to see the entire intake area, to me, it's an awkward crop.

To me, the first shot has some problems - motiv, dirty, level.

Well unfortunately, I could not fit the whole engine in the frame and it was taken with a fisheye. With a regular lens and the fisheye, the window frame would come in if i tired to fit the whole engine which did not fit in the first place thus motiv problem

It was more of an awkward picture in its original form than a crop.

1 - awkward crop and the background is a tad empty

2 - didn't we discuss that one already?

Yes, we all told him no pilots were allowed in the way he has shown. Plus, he is blocking a bit of the cockpit instruments.

Agree.

2 - Pilot is not doing anything and instruments are off so he is not needed in the seat? Your other accepted cockpit shot pilots are working.

My 0.02c worth.
