RE: Pre-screen Mig 17 Attempt.

The first one looks pretty good to me. Maybe a bit grainy in the darker areas of the fuselage, and the centering is a bit off. Some of the fins(?) on the wings also look a bit jaggy. I don't see anything that should not be possible to address, though. The second looks backlit so it is probably a non...

RE: Pre-Screening - Level, Etc (Newark727)

Hi, JAL - Quality does not seem to be there. For example, something does not look right with the reg. Maybe parts were soft/blurry and it took too much sharpening?

The colors on the aircraft look okay to me compared to others in the db. The grass colors look a bit off, but maybe that's because I haven't seen any live grass for a few months where I live!

RE: Pre-scrennig (El-Al 747 Massive Crop)

Itay,

I think you will probably get a motive or center rejection for that crop. I would say that there is too much empty space on the left of the frame.

Looks like it needs more contrast also.

RE: Baffled By Rejection For Colour (JakTrax)

Hi Karl,

I see a distinct purple shade on the top of the fuselage. However, as you say that is a color that clouds frequently turn at sunset so it is not surprising to have that color reflected off of the aircraft. To me the coloring looks perfectly normal for the conditions.
