The image has a yellow color cast and shows a lot of noise. It is also soft and the horizontal stabilizer is blurry. Regretfully, in its current form it will not make it. Probably not editable enough to offset the blurriness since you image is already at 1024 pixels on its long side. At smaller sizes, certain flaws such as blurriness are not visible as much as they are at larger sizes.

Yellow color cast was the actual lighting at the airport, this is how I saw the image with Naked Eye. It can be fixed as it's a Raw file.

Blurry ? Camera was resting on stable platform, I used 10 sec timer, and aircraft wasn't moving.

I agree with Jehan. Remember there are multiple different types of blur that an image can have. There is blur from the image being out of focus. Depending on how the image was shot, f-stop, the depth of field of the image can ultimately suffer thus areas that are at a different focal length from the camera will show up as blurry/out of focus. Motion blur is something else which you would see from the camera being held in a hand etc. A stable platform is actually not as good as a tripod from my experience.

Sodium lights can cause a yellow/orange lighting. However, there is still seems to be more color cast.


Lastly, just out of curiosity what were the camera settings you used for this shot?

Hi! I think all of them need more sharpeness and contrast. The third is a bit HIF. But just my point of view. Hope I can help.

Best.

1) dust spot top of frame (above left side hor.stab.), quality seems a bit compressed (perhaps due to the hosting site). Image seems a bit soft.
2) soft, low contrast, high in frame.
3) soft, low contrast, high in frame, CCW.

Hi, the crop could be a bit tighter (leave less space around the edges of the plane, respecting the allowed ratios for uploading).

The derelict Cessna (?): second one is better in terms of color, but still blurry, noisy and quality.
First heli: not great, but perhaps passable
Second heli: not great, unbalanced crop.
Second photo of -BLH is better in terms of color, but still a bit blurry.

Cessna 131k blurry ? Camera was resting on the ground with No wind around. Should I upload at higher resolution ?
.
For Mi17 58660 , I have retaken the picture will edit and reupload. Will try my luck with this version too.

Please comment on this 4R-MRE too. If quality is an issue I can upload at higher resolution.

No, that will make it look worse. Perhaps the focus/DoF was incorrectly set. Either way it doesn't seem fixable for that photo.

A320: Blurry, low contrast, quality.
ALO3: seems passable

This one looks soft to me and the some parts look bit of blurry to me mabye because of soft problem and i will resize it to 1200px or 1024px. Besides, it's bit of underexposed to me.
In addition, i am not sure that whether if you upload this one will reject for Similar or Double because you posted a similar Alouette here last time. I'll choose one of them to upload as the change of angle of them is slight. Last one seems better i think.

Cheers,
Harry

The "ARMY" looks so soft that i consider it looks blurry but it actually should be ok i think. I did a quick edit to it and i tried to resize it to a smaller size like 1200px or 1250px and then gave it more sharpness then it looks better. Besides, it also can have bit of more contrast too when you add some exposure to it.
However, to be honest , i will choose last one to upload as that one has better light condition and other aspects look better than this one too. As Kas commented before about that one it looks ok.

Regarding to the AH-1, if you have another angle of it i would suggest you to change another angle as the light condition of this one is pretty bad i think.It looks bit of backlit i think.Besides, the contrast of it is definitely low to me.

The light condition is much better than the last one but it deserves more contrast i think. And ... not sure about others as the quality looks iffy to me.

Should be OK with a few edits:
1. Apply some clockwise rotation to level the horizon
2. A hint of brightness
3. There is a white speck located at about the middle of the cloud in front of the wing.

With the above, it would be acceptable for me.

The first isn't great in terms of quality (and maybe also a bit overexposed). The second one has the sunlight illuminating dirty areas on the window, so for me that's a no-go.
