Possession of an original slide means you’re the copyright holder?

Re: How to add photo with attachment here?

You need to upload the images to a service such as imgur and then paste the link they create for you in your post.

Re: Post Screening Feedback - Rpd14

Verticals at the edges of the frame are not reliable references for level. I agree the image needs CCW rotation.

Re: Understanding Limits on Creative Shots

I had to fight to get this shot accepted because the interior was blurry/out of focus. 5021813 The concerns I'd have with your rejected photo when compared to the accepted one are 1. The amount of burry wing and reflections shown is borderline distracting to the rest of the image and 2. The tighter ...

Re: Screener comments

I would like to learn what is needed to have photos that are acceptable and the only way I know to do that is ask. Best way to do that is to post them here in the forum before you upload to the website and ask for feedback. There are several community members and screeners here to give advice and f...

Re: Pre-screening please

How exactly does one come to the conclusion that the first (Polar 747) is high in frame? distance from the top of the image till the top of the airframe (i.e. cockpit) is much smaller than the distance from the bottom of the image till the bottom of the airframe (i.e. tail). Although on first sight...

Re: Unprofessional screener feedback

Whoever the screener is who wrote that comment should be relived of his screening duties immediately. Ummm no they shouldnt. It should first be investigated first and I am sure once it is there is probably a explanation to it, at worst an apology should be issued and maybe some follow up training. ...

Re: Pre-Screening feedback Rpd14

I like the composition but would probably bring the crop in on the right to exclude the wheel.

Re: What happened to JK Photography' pics ?

I believe he left in February along with a few others on the screening team.

Re: Pre-screening RT145

Photos are definitely taken at the maximum quality, they're exported from lightroom reduced to the max size for a.net although I'm thinking it might be the pixels per inch setting which is currently at 240 Pixels per inch doesn't matter unless you're physically printing photos. Having it set at 1 o...

Re: Have quality standards changed on here recently?

Regardless, I still disagree with it and it is cheapening the site and the reputation. What is it going to be, top 5 photos all the time being nothing more than scantily clad people posing with the plane just being a minor distraction in the background? This is not what airliners.net was about and ...

Re: Have quality standards changed on here recently?

I'm fine with it if the change is being applied equally, but it's simply not. I had this photo rejected for distance, underexposed, and motive; and upheld on appeal with the comment "Underexposed due to aircraft being backlit. Insufficient motive for wide crop. Sorry, but a person in the frame...

Re: Ravn Alaska closing its doors?

At this point, Alaska should plan for Wright and Ryan Air to fill the gap. Ravn should be persuaded to sell its owned tangible assets to the two. And Grant, and Bering Air, and Wings of Alaska. We have the most pilots per capita of anywhere in the nation. Its but like we won't have options when Rav...

Re: Best Phone Camera

Something like the iPhone 11 Pro would be more than capable of getting shots accepted here. Those of us that use cheap equipment (anyone else have 50+ photos on here taken with a $150 point-and-shoot?) have acquired a bag of tricks that make it feasible.

Re: Post-Screening F-18

Not high in frame. Agree with low contrast, would bring the blacks and mids down. Don't think it's overexposed, leave the highlights where they are. The "203" on the nose is the only spot that looks soft, most everything else looks normal.

Re: Photo(s) that made you go WOW!

There has been some changes to acceptance criteria recently which explains some of the said shots being accepted. A couple of the items considered were if the posers were posing for the photographer or just part of the background of a common scene for the location. In the case of Phuket, it seems t...

Re: pre-screening advice

Hello guyz, I just received the screening's result of my A318CJ nightshot and it ended up with a motive rejection. I think that the marshaller is a bit much present (i was afraid of). Sadly i don't have other pics without him. Otherwise, the dornier one has been accepted to the database. Many thank...

Re: Help with rejection - CCW Rotation

Level is not necessarily judged technically, rather by how the image appears to one's eye. If you'd like our input and help on that, please post the image you uploaded.

Re: Unalaska/Dutch Harbor DUT/PADU now that 7H-Ravn/Penair is shut down

I think the $12 million loan was to keep the company alive until it can be sold or parted out. I don't believe this amount was related to the CARES act for airlines. Doesn’t make any sense to take a loan to liquidate. Just liquidate under chapter 7. they should have no problem selling the caravans ...

Re: Unalaska/Dutch Harbor DUT/PADU now that 7H-Ravn/Penair is shut down

If they could get a hold of them, could Horizon fly Ravn's -200's on the route using their own pilots (or Ravn's, bet they're not doing anything else)? Just thinking company familiarity with the type would make that more likely than them flying the SAABs. FWIW, the Q400 wingspan is 3'-3" more t...

Re: Airport construction projects question

Re: pre-screening advice

Softness may be acceptable. It is true that there are images in the DB with the tail cropped, but most of them are where the nose gear is at the bottom of the frame. Doesn't seem to be the case here. IMO, the crop of the tip of the tail could have been avoided. Here's one of mine with the tail crop...

Re: Rejected

I'd appeal, nothing wrong with this crop in theory. If this was mine I would center the fuselage top/bottom and left/right but this should be fine for here.

Re: Happy ADS-B Mandate!

There are blind spots in every aircraft. GA flying shouldn't be a roll of the dice. It doesn't matter how good of a pilot you are if you've got some reckless a-hole not following the rules.
