RE: Pre-screening Please
Hi,
in my very amateurish eye this is over-exposed.
Drop your highlights a touch!
Look at where the vertical stabilizer connects to the fuselage, I think a lot more detail could be seen if you drop your highlights and / or exposure! Same for the side of the left engine, for instance.
I would bump up your contrast a bit too, knowing A-net's preference!

RE: Pre-screening Please
Hello Gasman,
I would say it is a bit soft (titles, although that's not my best quality to spot), it's clipped a bit too tight around the wings, it might need a little bit of cw rotation, looks like it's a bit effected by heat haze. Is the original okay? If not try I would try 1024x. Now wait for the experts opinions...
Bye

| Quoting gasman (Thread starter): Any advice on this one? |
It needs roughly 0.5 degrees of cw rotation and it is overexposed.
Sharpness and contrast look good to me as well as the crop.

Thierry

Now this raises a question that's been bugging me. Clicking the white balance dropper on the fuselage *should* make it pure white shouldn't it? But it doesn't!
RE: Pre-screening Please
There is still a yellow cast and the blue cheatline looks jagged
RE: Pre-screening Please
Why are we trying to get pure white?
Looks like a late afternoon shot. Slight to moderate yellow/orange is pretty normal. The most recent edit looks perfectly normal, color-wise.

That is a decision that has been taken back in the days when Johan was still running the show and the site stuck to it. Just like "pure white" for nights shots. You may, and probably will, get photos accepted with some color cast in low light conditions but if you want to make real sure "pure white" will get you there.

Oh I know that, but if you look at my uploads, very few of them are white balanced to pure white, simply because I try to match the existing conditions when I took the photo.
A.net's been pretty good about accepting them, for the most part. I've had shots accepted that had FAR more color cast than Gasman's.
But, it's obviously the individual uploader's choice!
