757 looks blurry and OS to compensate.
Mu2 looks blurry (HH?) and needs a closer crop on the right.
C402(?) looks passable, but needs a tighter crop.

I understand the Delta and MU2 (yes it was HH).

Cape looks passable.

Wordpress · Tue Nov 20, 2018 4:07 pm

Some more from the same sequence, any opinions?

Runway28L · Tue Nov 20, 2018 9:25 pm

N192AA: Passable
N190AA: Right wing OS, background needs NR, tighter crop on the right side (although that's just my opinion)
VP-LAD: Background needs NR
N36911: Blotchy sky
N14NA: Noisy

The 757's seem a bit affected by heat haze. The Cessna's look passable and the Falcon look flat and you cropped of a small antenna on the wingtip. Marginal light for that, but I think you could get away with that.

Both of the 757's are affected by HH? I could see the one on the ground but I don't see it in the aerial photo (maybe soft?).

And to confirm, VP-LAD and N36911 are passable?

Here's the Falcon.

Also here's a noise reduced Cessna.

Wordpress · Thu Nov 22, 2018 8:43 pm

Sorry, I can't edit my post. I wanted to make sure that the cessna noise reduced was better.

Runway28L · Sat Nov 24, 2018 10:01 pm

N14NA: Crop is better. I agree with Kas that the lighting is 50/50.
VP-LAD. Sky still a bit blotchy but not as bad as the first one. Might be able to pass.

airkas1 · Mon Nov 26, 2018 9:13 pm

The airborne 757 looks slightly blurred/hazy too.
The Falcon is still a bit flat, the light not doing you any favors unfortunately.
VP-LAD looks passable.

Wordpress · Thu Nov 29, 2018 3:08 pm

Thanks a ton Kas! How about any of these?

Wordpress · Fri Nov 30, 2018 1:40 am

How about these same ones from the sequence?

airkas1 · Fri Nov 30, 2018 11:24 am

- I like the first C208 photo better, but both are a bit marginal.
- The Cape Airs seem passable.
- The Saab is a bit blurry on the nose but otherwise not too bad.
- Both Gulfstream photos look blurry.

Do you think the Caravans are fixable? If they are, in what way should I fix them?

Also, I applied some selective sharpening, how does it look now? Also, would this be able to make it regardless? I don't understand what you mean by "not too bad."

airkas1 · Fri Nov 30, 2018 1:46 pm

Unfortunately the Saab still looks blurry on the nose. The Caravans look slightly blurry and I don't think much can be done to improve them. You could give it a try, but I wouldn't hold my breath,

That's okay, I'll keep practicing and I'll have three cape airs in the queue! :lol:

Wordpress · Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:37 pm

I doubt this will make it in, but how do you like it?

airkas1 · Sat Dec 01, 2018 11:46 am

I like it, but it's not going to make it here. Blurry/OOF and low quality in general, sorry.

Yeah, I thought so. I'll leave it on my hard disk for the memories though.

Wordpress · Mon Dec 10, 2018 6:20 pm

The 4 that were "passable" were all denied.

airkas1 · Tue Dec 11, 2018 8:43 pm

Appeal 5305809, 5301431 and 5301425 and let me know when done.

I appealed the first two.

Wordpress · Sun Mar 31, 2019 2:44 pm

It's been a while. Not sure if these photos will make it on but let's see.

airkas1 · Sun Mar 31, 2019 3:00 pm

1) poor crop, poor light
2) not bad, but some banding in the sky and not much to see.
3) UE, very marginal quality and the cropped winglet of the 757 looks odd.

Sorry to say, but I would likely reject all 3.

Wordpress · Thu Apr 18, 2019 7:20 pm

Hello again.
I think I fixed the blur on the nose of an old photo.

airkas1 · Sun Apr 21, 2019 7:56 am

In general blurry can't really be fixed though. The cockpit/nose still looks a bit hazed, I'm 50/50 on it.

Wordpress · Fri Jul 05, 2019 4:10 am

Hello again.
If I can get these prescreened that would be great.

Caribbean: very blurry and hazed
JB: quite oversharpened/jaggy, poor crop. Are you srue it isn't blurry and OS to compensate?
Kalitta: seems passable
VS: jaggy, marginal quality
AK: blurryish nose(gear), marginal quality

Wordpress · Fri Jul 05, 2019 3:07 pm

Thank you for the opinions. How should I go about cropping the JetBlue? The original without sharpening looked good in my eyes and I think I overdid it with sharpening.

Runway28L · Sat Jul 06, 2019 4:08 am

I would expand the crop to try and fit the rest of the wingtips in if that's possible. If not, then I would crop towards the left engine and right horizontal stabilizer while keeping the nose and the whole tail in-frame.

Wordpress · Thu Aug 15, 2019 1:48 pm

Hi guys!
I have a new batch of photos. Tell me what you think.

fsx98 · Sat Aug 17, 2019 5:07 pm

Caravan looks backlit
United B737 looks top-lit (poor lighting); not sure if that will make it
Cape Air looks soft
N477RS is soft in the nose area
American A321 looks dark/backlit; definitely won't make it
Delta B752 needs CCW rotation; poor lighting

Crosswindphoto · Sat Aug 17, 2019 8:21 pm

1: Backlit and poor crop, there are other problems but backlit and poor crop are the killers.
2: Lighting is fine, maybe a touch soft, but maybe ok.
3: A little soft around the tail and reg.
4: Same as #3
5: Backlit, heat haze, soft, I don't think this will make it.
6: Not a great Crop, also some minor heat haze.

Any opinions on these?

Crosswindphoto · Tue Aug 27, 2019 7:08 am

1: Not even close to upload size.
2: Borderline for OS and underexposed. Image also looks kinda purple.
3: Good motive, however, it lacks overall quality IMO. Looks slightly heat hazed, a tad dark, and a slight purple cast to it.
4: Heat haze, Blurry, soft. Does not look fixable unfortunately
5: Poor crop (bad motive, nothing in the background that justifies such crop), Heat Haze. To me it does not look fixable.

airkas1 · Tue Aug 27, 2019 8:37 am

AV: not a proper upload edit
JAL: heat haze, quality
JB: HH, OS, UE
JB: UE, HH
DL: blurry, HH, LIF

Any thoughts?

Crosswindphoto · Mon Sep 02, 2019 7:10 pm

1: Weird light, poor framing/cropping.
2: Poor crop/motive (engine cut off), maybe a touch dark as well.
3: Underexposed, nose area looks a touch soft.

Tim

Runway28L · Tue Sep 03, 2019 1:10 am

1. Tighter crop, oversharpened, grainy, color looks off(?)
2. Agree with Tim
3. High contrast, underexposed
