Hi @PopeyeDoyle1963 ,

The picture is noisy - both chromatic and luminance. They are underexposed with white balane, and color fringing issues.

 
 

 

Best wishes

this picture was rejected for CA.  Photoshop 2025, the most advanced software offered by Adobe, can't find any adjustments to make in auto, even though the camera and lens are in the database.  On manual of the three adjustments possibles, there is virtually no detectable change in the fringes, and particularly in the area that is suspect by reviewers.  Chat GPT examined this picture and found no AC.  I wonder if reviewers have been to this area in a helicopter and seen what it actually looks like.  I can assure that this what the na pali coast looks like.  There are fringes of different colors caused by natural fauna.  i can't resubmit this photo if there are no adjustments that Adobe's best software can make.  someone is welcome to download this picture and make changes so that I can see what is going on

You don't know that the image was rejected for CA. I said that I saw the CA, and it's one possible reason for rejection, but the truth is that Adobe simply doesn't provide us with such detail, so it's a guessing game. I also advised that you could use Adobe Camera Raw to correct it on the RAW file. Have you tried that?

Here is the original shot from the RAW file converted into a JPEG.  Taken from an open air helicopter with a nikon lens and D200.  I guess the camera is flawed somehow.  Please take a look. Thanks

Zoom in and inspect the same area and you can clearly see the chromatic aberration (CA) which is caused by the lens under certain lighting conditions. It's not a camera flaw. It's easily corrected on the Lens Correction panel in LRC.

ok thank you. This is my first time with this platform (adobe vs getty
etc) and it appears the quality specs are higher, since it was accepted by
those 2 others. Hopefully I can resubmit it . I don't know if they allow
that. Thanks again

Here is the original picture, converted into a JPEG from the original RAW
file. This was taken with a D200 in 2011 with a nikon lens and from an
open air helicopter, thus no glass distortion. Does this photo have the
same defects?
