Bottom right looks best to me. Mine was just to highlight my point... yours did have a slight cyan cast to my eye. My quick AUTO was to show the levels per channel were not in concert that's all. Indeed mine has a slight bend towards red...Quote:

Even if you skip my whole long explanation, I think everyone should check out the color illusions at the end, if you haven't seen them before.
I'm officially sick of A-net now after they rejected a couple photos of mine.
For bad size:

and for Undersharpening, and size.

What is the image size you uploaded them at, Kris?
Chris, your images are 1200x918, outside the rules.. Why are you CROPPING your originals in a non standard ratio? Just curious.
Landscape photos:
The first number is the longer side (horizontal) * second number is the shorter side (vertical one) in a 3:2 ratio and third (last) number is the shorter (vertical) side in a 4:3 ratio. Note that these numbers do not include the Airliners.net copyright banner which is added during upload, and is 12 pixels high. This would then add 12 pixels to the shorter (vertical) size.
1000 * 667 -> 750
1024 * 683 -> 768
1100 * 733 -> 825
1200 * 800 -> 900
1300 * 866 -> 975
1400 * 933 -> 1050
1500 * 1000 -> 1125
1600 * 1066 -> 1200
Portrait photos
The first number is the shorter side (horizontal) * second number is the longer side (vertical one) in a 3:2 ratio and third (last) number is the longer (vertical) side in a 4:3 ratio. Note that these numbers do not include the Airliners.net copyright banner which is added during upload and is 12 pixels high. This would then add 12 pixels to the longer (vertical) size.
667 -> 750 *1000
683 -> 768 *1024
733 -> 825 *1100
800 -> 900 *1200
866 -> 975 *1300
933 -> 1050 *1400
1000 -> 1125 *1500
1066 -> 1200 *1600
BTW, what are the pixel dimensions of your camera?

It's OK, you have salvaged a few shots you should have thrown in the trash just to post them here so we are about even :tongue:Quote:

Pixel Dimensions are: 5184 x 3456
So without changing the aspect ratio, a 1200px wide shot should be 1200x800 naturally.
Wait, what?Quote:

A bit disappointed this got rejected. Any ideas on what to level to?

Thanks
Rotate the white tower near the middle, on the horizon CCW. Everything seems to be leaning very slightly to the right.Quote:

And ofcorse it was screeners choice and Top of the day on JP. :biggrin:

What was it rejected for? Grain? Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet casts? :tongue: It's an awesome shot.Quote:

is virtually identical to that on Stefan's pictures:
Not dumping on Stefan's pics, BTW...they're great, and I was pointed to them by a colleague who was there and told me that's how the scene looked. Just making the point that non-screeners are unlikely to get the same benefit of doubt on early/late day color casts.
Why, do you know someone who has trouble getting color casts rejected?Quote:

There's multiple issues with those photos, and they should be stated in the e-mail you received from A.net.
Lucas, this is directed at your question re: your rejections ... just in case you may think it is regarding some other post.
--Both pictures lack punch or what is commonly known as A.net contrast. A lot of what Airliners looks for is uniquely their own taste, do not think it is about what everyone agrees with. So keep it in mind that just because you or one hundred others disagree, it is somehow wrong or right. It has nothing to do with wrong or right, it only has to do with what A.net likes to see.
Top Pic (A320)
-Lack of contrast
-Motive: This is related to your motive for the image. Meaning what did you intend to show? For Airliners, the intent or motive should be primarily the airplane. They like it to be centered and balanced. So, your image lacks a motive. There is too much space on the left of the aircraft and it is also not centered horizontally. The airplane is also not centered vertically. Finally, it is not level. The image needs a bit of CCW rotation. That is Counter-Clock-Wise ...
-Soft: It lacks sharpness. Images posted to the A.net database must be A.net sharp. This is a level of sharpness you and many may not be very comfortable with as it borders on oversharpening. Be prepared to suffer in this area. I still get soft rejections from time to time. I have learned to accept them and recognize them :-)
Bottom Pic (B737)
-Soft
-Level
-Motive
In this one, the left horizontal stabilizer is stabbing the edge of the image frame. This is not acceptable and it is also unbalanced as there is too much space to the left of the aircraft.

I will upload a couple of edits to see if I can highlight some changes you can make and try to upload again.

Halos around aircraft... I think the fact that it was very humid that morning, there was a bit of turbulence and when the plane goes through it... what can you do. To see it you must view it under Photoshop and Equalize the histogram or compress it in curves...

Any thoughts on how to level this one? I always have problems uploading shots from this spot--it always takes forever to get them "level" according to A.net.
By my Photoshop ruler, it is level with the horizon. Thoughts?

If Level was the only rejection reason, I'd appeal it...looks perfectly fine to me. Is it just me, or does the striping down the airplane look fuchsia/red, instead of gold, though?Quote:

Jeremy, color looks fine to me given that it looks very overcast and early.
yea,it looks fine to me Mabye the less open space? mine was only rejected For centering And left a lot of open space >.<,there really strict
Nice how did that get rejected? Colors or cenerd?Quote:

JP.net rules state that the slightest issue with the image under severe scrutiny should be rejected. So it is been re-edited properly and re-uploaded. :smile:
Yellow shades, Cary, YeLlOw!!!!! And the beard is a deep charcoal, not black... the white, you know it, nice and yElLoW :tongue:
