Wheels Up!

Sky is nice and boring, doesn't attract from the subject and its suitable dull.

Top example.

For fun, you could flip it vertically...

Quite correct, having been duly rejected more times then ever accepted A.net are very very choosey on what they let on the site.

Unless the picture is soooo super rare ie a plane crash or bad landing etc etc the quality has to be spot on. Your picture has alot of sensor dust marks and will need to be cloned out before sending.

They will probably even say it's not centred correctly ie it's lying slightly down and left.

Please don't think this is too critical, I like the pic, it's more of what Im sure the screeners will pick up.

Anyway I hope you do get accepted and post a link here as will will help with your hit count!!

Regards M

Wouldn't try this one. Needs a fair bit of work for a.net standards.

But I love your Lufthansa shot.

Very first thing they'll reject on will be the "Bad Dirty" - ie, sensor dust,
Then not to be nasty, as I think it's a good shot, just their high standards won't take our average shots, but they'll also pull it down for "Bad Dark", "Bad Soft", and something to do with the framing/cropping. Just needs to be a bit up in the frame.

Anyway, if you were to try a shot, I would do the Lufthansa one, with mayeb a tigheter crop, without so much space in front of the nose. Just some honest advise for their standards. You're a good photographer.
