Manny thanks alot man

[gonzalu]

You're quite welcome sir... shoot me an E-mail if you want me to help further :-)

Got a unique vantage point for this one, the old observation deck in concourse C, but the horizon evaded me. Any suggestions? I tried to level to the tree line in the background.



Thanks

I'd try and take the horizontal or vertical on the hangar on the right of the shot - or maybe the vertical on the light poles - they all seem to lean to the left a little..

[gonzalu]

if anything, the lights on the right of frame are a hair CW not CCW. But, it is really close. Not sure what the screener used as a reference but the lights are OK to my eye. Perhaps the fuselage of the front-most bird is what was used? The A320 does sit a bit nose high in real life... it is not that horizontal to begin with :P

I would also say your exposure is a bit under as well... here is my take on it.



I did rotate it CW a bit to the truck on the lower right...

[JDANDO]

Arghhhhhhhhh. I fail, maybe my monitor is not level



What do you guys think, 0.3 CCW?

Here is my take on it

Sounds nutty but it could be, your original was way off. You using a notebook or desktop?

Desktop.

Kaz, that edit looks great. Not sure what I was thinking with my original edit

[NIKV69]

May want to check how the monitor is sitting. It may look level to you but once someone else looks at it on a level monitor it's way off.

What happens when you take advice from fellow NYC members, but forget to delete the older pic...oops.

[JDANDO]

Opps. Wait until you upload the same picture twice

This one was frustrating. Originally rejected only for Level. I fixed the Level, and it got rejected for Centered (stating "High in frame - no motivation for off cneter"). I appealed, and got rejected for Centered and Level (again!). I put a centered vertical guide in the photo...sorry, but I don't see how it's not level, and I think the Centered is pretty minor for a reg with 5 photos in the database. There are other SXM photos in the DB, with partial buildings/no beach/no ground and high in frame planes.

[gonzalu]

:-( Maybe Pete can give you a better explanation but I believe it to be level and properly motivated for SXM. However, I may be wrong but, the motive is OK when it is the beach that shows with people ... Just the top of the hotels may not be enough motive for this composition. I say if you have enough pixels, place it dead smack in the center and it may be more acceptable? Just a thought.

Cary, what happens when you try to use a horizontal line and level off the top of blue line in the background (as your horizon)? When processing did you use lens correction? I definitely have to agree with the jet being high in the frame. I'm sure Manny would have rejected it as well for other reasons!
