Registration Help Needed (Continental Express ERJ)

Hi, I have a picture of a Continental Express Embraer 145 on which I can't read the full registration. The last two letters are <acronym title="Scandinavian Airlines (Denmark/Norway/Sweden)">SK</acronym> and the code on the front gear doors is 805. I thought it might be N805SK but that on belongs to...

The airlinecode PH is used by two different airlines, in this case the 2nd is Transavia Denmark.

RE: Novice Photographer

Try to get as close as possible to the window to avoid reflection. Taking pictures through aircraft windows is very difficult since the windows with the space between the clear plastic in the cabin and the glass outside are just not made for it. Also the glass filters light out so that the required ...

RE: Pre-Screening - Centered

I think it is way too low in frame. The sky is nice, but not nothing special. So perhaps you can crop somewhere close to the clouds.

Also try to get rid off some of the grain which is visible. Neat Image might help here,

RE: Is This Soft?

The picture is partly soft (as already pointed out, around the windows for example) and in other parts oversharpened (tail, stabilizer, engines, gear). If you did not sharpen it at all you should really check you camera settings. Probably the internal sharpening is enabled resulting in that strange ...

RE: Canon EF 100-400 Age Issues

Good points, thanks for your input. I am not fully convinced that it's just me who misinterpretes something and I will observe that closely.

Gabriel, did you clean the lens yourself? Would be interesting to know since mine has some dirt behind the first lens.
