Hi all, https://imgproc.airliners.net/photos/airliners/5/7/0/7115075.jpg?v=v45a4d2b4506 This one was rejected for being oversharp & common. I can reduce the sharpness no problem in the next edit, however I'm thinking of lodging an appeal because I do not think it's enough to warrant a rejection...
Jump to postCan I get some feedback on below two rejections please?

Jump to postHi all, I'm in the market for a new body. Let me outline my existing setup first: 1). Canon 7D (primary) 2). Canon 700D (secondary) 3).

Jump to postHi all, Planning to visit the official observations decks at Narita & Haneda on a Tokyo trip later this year (March). I last took photos at these decks in 2014. 1).

Jump to postI think that Charles, just like most of us, have grown up and matured over the years - he'll be fine. The one thing that Charles will never be able to replicate though, is that warm, nurturing motherly/grandmotherly fondness that so many felt with Elizabeth. Same thing with the Queen Mum, everyone ...
Jump to postMilitarily speaking, what are Russia’s other options to escalate their assault? Since so far existing tactics are not working and the Ukrainians are successfully resisting on the ground and in the air. Eg: - Escalate the aerial bombardment even further with Tu-95s, Tu-160s, etc.? But they still don’...
Jump to postDay 4 and Kyiv still holds on.......you've got to wonder how much longer the Russians can sustain this. NATO intelligence predicts by day 10 Russians will not have the economic strength to continue sustaining the war effort. I don't think they are any closer to occupying the city and most of Ukraine...
Jump to postThe West, particularly the US, have been following the deployment of Russian forces very closely. In fact, it seems there is very little that’s surprising from a Russian deployment perspective, really, it’s just been trying to figure out what Putin’s next steps are. What’s been the chatter from mili...
Jump to postThank you Dutchspotter. Hi all, Here are the latest round of rejections for which feedback will be much appreciated: 1). UA 787 // https://imgproc.airliners.net/photos/airliners/9/8/6/6521689.jpg?v=v4ff26aed80e // Rejected for underexposed. Is this worth appealing? The contrast looks balanced enough...

Jump to postHi, Just added this photo to the queue, can I double check whether it should fit the "Night/Dusk/Dawn" category? It was taken about 30 mins prior to sunset and the sun is quite low in the horizon already, although there is still enough sun to light the plane. The reason I ask is because th...

Jump to postI remember spotting two Fedex MD-10-10Fs in the summer of 2010 in Hong Kong, registrations were N560FE & N68049.

Jump to postHi folks, I've started uploading on Airliners.net again and from time to time may need to seek feedback on how to correct rejected photos. This photo was originally rejected for soft so I increased the sharpness by another 10-20% and it is rejected again but this time for Dark, Common, Quality and S...
Jump to postDo you know what else is interesting? All these Republicans coming out now saying "Okay enough is enough, we must certify Biden's victory", etc., it's these people who were playing along with Trump's conspiracy theories about voter fraud and rigged elections since November.

Jump to postWhat a shocking sight to wake up to this morning. Sadly, what we saw at the Capitol is probably just the beginning.

Jump to postDo we know when the next block of PA votes will be released in EST time? If Biden’s lead goes to 30-40k+ the networks will likely start calling it for Joe.
Jump to postAre we expecting all of the remaining ballots in Georgia to be counted this evening EST time Nov 5?
Jump to postI don't think Biden can overtake Trump in PA, but Nevada should be his and I think Joe can come back to win GA.
Of course anything is still possible, this is 2020 after all!!
Trump’s lead in PA has narrowed to just +3, per NY Times. Do we know, as of now, how many votes are still yet to be tallied in PA?
Jump to postA drastic move, but almost impossible to enforce given the size and population as well as limited government reach.

Jump to postMaybe a silly question, but if we've been able to re-create nCov in lab conditions (as already happened in Australia & other jurisdictions apparently), could we not subject it to UV light and high temperatures to see how it reacts under lab conditions?

Jump to postI think it's important to not panic and overreact, and just start taking face/hand hygiene more seriously than you have ever before.

didnt take long for this to get politicized -_- ;;; But you can't deny the obvious fact that if the shooter wasn't white and was black or of dark-skin complexion, the headlines all across Western media, particularly right-wing outlets, would be calling it a terrorist attack even before all the fact...
Jump to postJKPhotos, that also reminds me, me and a bunch of other spotters on the T5 departure spot (the spot you need to cross the road twice to get to, away from the fences) were approached by random members of the public four times.

Jump to postI'm back in HK safe and sound with a huge number of pics to edit!

Jump to postI'm very sad to hear about the Westminster incident... I think spotting can be pretty much ruled out for me. The T5 departure level/car park spots will be filled with police and getting to the embankment without arousing suspicion will be impossible (it's 100% going to be 09 in the coming days). I a...
Jump to postHi there, I just sent you a PM as that seems to be the only other way I can contact you. Cheers.
Jump to postNo worries, I always air on the conservative side when taking plane photos outside of my hometown and will always be careful.
Thanks again to everyone for their input.
Thanks everyone for your responses. It's looking like there'll be some easterly winds during my stay so 09s are very likely. A few questions about 09L arrivals: 1). Understood the grass embankment by T5 is one of the spots for 09L photos, but I have also been told it's very exposed with no shelter a...

Jump to postI think the election of Trump has just set the US back about 30-40 years in terms of race relations, racial equality and multi-culturalism.

Jump to postHello,
How does one edit or add a caption to an already-accepted photo in the database? I've searched and unable to find this option. It used to be very straightforward in the old layout, but I can't find an option for this now.

Any idea on when we can expect appeal emails to be fixed? Thanks.
