There is a reason MyAviation.net exists separately. Big grin

United4everDEN · Sun Aug 22, 2004 11:45 am

There is a section in my profile for this.

This one got the dreaded "baddistance" axe.

It is a shame that shot isn't in the airliners.net database Mike, especially when contrasted with shots of airport interiors, control towers, and arrival/departure screens.

Hopefully this is a very rare occurance.

AKAU · Sun Aug 22, 2004 4:26 pm

Mike,
What was the reason for rejection?
I like the photo.

Andreas

[email protected] · Sun Aug 22, 2004 4:37 pm

the reason was
badquality

ExitRow · Sun Aug 22, 2004 4:55 pm

And there are SO many shots of a BA 777 leaving SAN from the front view in the DB...

Though, it's nowhere near as interesting as a closeup shot of a 767-300 tire.

Yeah sure

And Peter... should we direct all questions we have for Mike to you from now on?

[email protected] · Sun Aug 22, 2004 5:16 pm

Whats the problem william?
Andreas asked a question, this shot was discussed on the forums and I gave an answer. It doesnt happen that often that you get answers on questions in here Yeah sure

.
Sorry for doing so i feel really bad now Sleepy

There is a slight difference, one being that Greenland is underneath the wing in the 1st one! But the motive seems to be the same really. Smile

Never mind eh?

OK im done, these are just pictures in the last year, I have some more from before but they're not on myaviation.net

ExitRow · Mon Aug 23, 2004 12:45 am

Whats the problem william?

Well Peter... here's the question.

Mike, What was the reason for rejection?

He asked Mike, not you. You just seem a little quick on the trigger finger. I think it's best to let people answer questions for themselves and not by proxy. Whether it's been "discussed" or not.

[email protected] · Mon Aug 23, 2004 1:03 am

And he said thanks for the answer.
Yawn

And why dont you let mike post instead of doing it for him. If he really wouldnt like it that i gave an answer he could speak for himself i am pretty sure. So dont get a go on me for things you are doing for yourself.

Never question a screener, he might reject all your future pictures Nuts

Now that just wouldn't be fair. And I am sure P. Peter is VERY feir.

I liked these two. For the second one, it is not everyday you get to see an aircraft being built (unless you work at the factory, of course). Smile/happy/getting dizzy

[email protected] · Mon Aug 23, 2004 1:58 am

indeed on accusations like those i am . Sorry

Unique · Mon Aug 23, 2004 2:02 am

Peter, did I really accuse you of something? I made a joke but I'm sorry you don't understand my sense of humour. Your reaction, however, shows that it could be more than a joke...

Reply or not, I'm not going to open this thread anymore. Over and out!

They rejected that KICKASS BA 777 shot!? I'm sorry, but that is a 'bullshit' rejection.

EGGD · Tue Aug 24, 2004 3:07 am

We agreed at the time that it was an interesting shot, but the quality was never there. Therefore, the rejection was warranted.

vzlet · Tue Aug 24, 2004 3:52 am

But of course those ugly "fake" accusations came up...

Actually, I did submit this without the Su-27 and smoke. It became my initial introduction to "badpeople", "badmotiv", etc.

Ok my turn, these two were taken last year with a point and shoot while at work.

Finally an interesting plugging thread! Very nice shots indeed, especially a certain one by Suresh. Wink/being sarcastic

Here are my picks. Some of them were attempted a.net uploads, some weren't.

A340Spotter · Tue Aug 24, 2004 1:25 pm

Bit disappointed this afternoon to get this one rejected, thought it was better quality than the other close up shot that is on the site already (by another shooter)...

No offense meant for Michael by the way, it was a good shot in the cloudy conditions.

cathay112 · Tue Aug 24, 2004 3:23 pm

Mike,

That 777 shot is fantastic, the rooves and landing lights in the foreground only enhance the effect!!!!

Unlike photos added to airliners.net recently from a poster in this topic your photo has great colours, nice contrast and doesn't appear to have been cropped to within an inch of it's useable life.

Now, I must get back to checking when Wunala and Nalanji are going in for re-paints - recent photos show them being very very faded and colourless indeed!

nudelhirsch · Tue Aug 24, 2004 3:45 pm

There are some great photos up here, sad and sometimes questionable why those never made it into the database....

ChrisH · Tue Aug 24, 2004 6:51 pm

That BA 777 is a terrific shot!

cathay112: lol, your respect rating just gone up one point ;o) If you find out a date for the repaints let us now, many of us are worried.

bad quality

edit - dodgy link corrected - hopefully!

Craig,
I must say... you have ridiculously saturated, contrasty dark blue skies Down Under.

Truly amazing phenomena.

Continental · Wed Aug 25, 2004 4:09 am

EGGD: Well then that's just a lousy agreement.

saxdiva · Wed Aug 25, 2004 3:59 pm

Here's one I'd never upload (for obvious reasons), but I really dig it anyway:

IAH777 · Wed Aug 25, 2004 10:11 pm

A bit grainy, etc., but I like 'em:

spacecadet · Thu Aug 26, 2004 4:01 am

Some of these shots I would have rejected too, but I do wish there was a bit more deference to creativity on this site. I'd rather have a good shot even if it doesn't show the reg # of the airplane or 1/2 inch of the empennage is cut off or whatever, than just have a bunch of straight, evenly lit catalog shots.

Pilot Kaz: non-straight horizons could be corrected in about 2 seconds though, you know - you should re-submit those if that was the only problem.

IL76 · Thu Aug 26, 2004 5:30 am

I didn't manage to get this shot accepted... Bummer... I either need serious PhotoShop help, or the original is simply crap... Sad

Cheers,
Eduard

ExitRow · Thu Aug 26, 2004 8:52 am

Eduard,
That is FAR from a crap shot. Great composition. Nice work.

And points for taking the chance on the vertical frame.

What was it rejected for?

william

EGGD · Thu Aug 26, 2004 10:01 am

Baddistance probably. Its a great shot but to get on the database i reckon you need more vapour in the foreground. But still, good job on trying a little creative composition.

IL76 · Thu Aug 26, 2004 2:31 pm

William,
At the size in which I posted it here, it looks alright, but at 683x1024 you can see quite some grain already. I tried taking it out by doing some smartblur, but still the whole thing looked quite 'doubtful'.
That morning there was so much fog, there was very little contrast, so in the darker areas I had a lot of grain. I can't seem to get rid of it without ruining the rest of the picture... So, it was "badquality", and I guess rightfully so. No worries though, I'll just leave it as a little picture in my profile. Smile

Thanks,
Eduard

hbfly · Thu Aug 26, 2004 8:04 pm

It was rejected for badmotive.

digby · Thu Aug 26, 2004 8:18 pm

A few that have been rejected, primarily for badmotiv, although after seeing some of the other types of shots uploaded lately, there seems to be plenty of inconsistancy. *bitch mode off*

I have reduced in size and quality.

Great topic!

eksath · Thu Aug 26, 2004 10:58 pm

Digby,

those looked great....what's the target on the one before last?
