    Level or Not?

    seriously now, i need help. well, aside from the obvious i want your opinions on this photo:



    i keep having it rejected from a certain site for having bad color and it being not level. i think the color and the level are perfect, and the edit is better than any other of my shots (thanks tommy) but the weenies keep rejecting it because it's not a euro-white 50mm side-on. tell me what you all think. seeing as the airplane is touching down 1000ft right of where i was standing the runway and adjectent taxiway aren't going to be perfectly level in the frame. as far as the color, i don't see what they're talking about.

    Honestly, I certainly see a green tint.

    As for level, if looks good. I'm using the vertical lines on the condos and houses across the bay, which look ok. If ANYTHING, I'd say a .13 CCW turn.

    That green tint is the glas. The tower cab glass creates green tint when you shoot through it.

    this was taken from the roof guys, not inside the cab. i've thrown out all the ones that i took form inside, there is no way i can get the green out.

    Well 90 pct of my shots from work are from inside and while some of you may mention the green tint in my photos I did manage to get a few accepted from that location even with the tint. And while I get more than my share of rejections, hardly ever for bad color. Hang in there Matt, I think it's a great shot !

    Cheers

    Your shot is interesting, it's true. Regardless, I think it has a green tint. My 10D gives me an automatic green tint that requires that decrease green by 4 in highlights in Color Balance in order to correct it.

    It's a great photo.
