American Eagle should not be a white paintjob but more of a high polished like the rest of the AA fleet to match, The American Flag is too small (come on, the airline is called AMERICAN?), The RJ regional jet on the engine is way too small and the text is absurd, yet flaccid.

It is sad when an airplane is modeled after a womans pleasure device, but with winglets this aircraft may actually get away with it! The Delta logo on the side is way to small. The tail is ugly and the nose looks like it was made with an off center pencil sharpener. The coin slot to make it go just behind the engine needs to include the new $1 coins. And they really do not need to have the log on the tail point in the direction that the aircraft is traveling, controllers are not as dumb as pilots want us to believe.... well, not most of them!
Oh, the right tire is low by 4lbs! The outer right tire!
Hope this helps
Here are my comments:
1 - Your exposure settings and focus are off
2 - Over sharpening of the images during post processing
3 - It looks like your panning technique needs improvement as well (but that depends on your settings as well........if you used a slow shutter speed, panning becomes more difficult).
It might help also if you could provide your camera settings (ISO, aperture, and shutter speed), and also what metering method you might have use (Matrix, Center Weighted or Spot Metering).
The American Eagle picture was taking with the following settings:Quote:

I did try sharpening and I think adjusting the the contrast.

Although, I can't seem to view your photo's...I'll still might be able to provide some help.
Given the focal length of 160mm a good rule of thumb is that your minimum shutter speed should be around 1/focal length, therefore you min. shutter speed would have been 1/160 sec or so. Anything less than 1/160 you'll start to introduce camera shake or motion blur into your image, unless your lens has some sort of vibration reduction or image stablizaton you can probably get away with a lower shutter speed. Using a tripod or monopod is helpful as well. Another thing you can do is bump up your ISO which will allow you to increase your shutter speed. Remember all three of these are interelated for a correct exposure ..... ISO setting, Aperture, and Shutter Speed.
On sunny days I have the ISO at 100. Should I try 200 or higher? I deffinately need a tripod,as I can't hold the camera steady to save my life. The shutter speed is usually set at 1/500. Thanks for all the help,as I need it!
