This one is much better.

Based on the images you've sent, I see no quality issues on the original photo as well as on the cutten one. So problem is in the software or in some particular action you're performing. As an example i've worked on the 2nd image a little and have resized it.

Unfortunatelly I can not see the image you linked, just a code and even with copy & paste I was not able to see it.

However, I have started new with the original image and resized it and make it a little bit sharp. What do you think about this result?

Hello!
Although I speak Russian I´ll write here in English.

I have a question about this photo. It was marked with "underexposed". I´m not quite sure that the statement is true. The sun is behind the tram and it shines on the whole left side of the vehicle. The front is just a little bit darker, but it can´t be different. In my opinion this photo has very good quality.

Here is an example of a picture I can agree that isn´t good. Althogh I don´t know why it had to marked red. The tram is good to see.

Hello,

underexposed is not correct for this photo, right. Nonuniform lightning is the correct one for this case. Because sun was from behind.

For the second one, you have better picture within several month from yourself: https://transphoto.org/photo/1504040/?vid=198347

Hello again!

To keep it as short as possible, last time I could agree with your explanation for the moderating "issue". This time I have a serios comlaint about bad moderating for 2 artistic photos

1. https://transphoto.org/photo-all/1841719/
"Poor frame compositon"... I don't even have a comment on that. It's a long exposure (8MB in original) whose purpose is to be classified as an artistic or miscellaneus photo, becaue it doesn't only show the tram (although the tram is perfect to see in whole). Okay, I can cut the ground and re-upload it. But I can find 100+ pictures that are much worse but were still accepted.
"Specify vehicle number"... I specified it. When I mark the photo as miscellaneus, I can only do it in the descritpion. But it can still be fixed so it doesn't bother me that much

2. https://transphoto.org/photo-all/1842869/
This picture has the same objections and it was marked red! But what makes me angry here, is the fact that this is a beautiful picture of the Tatra tram. Any kind of cutting would destroy the picture in total. The picture has strong colours and is very sharp, with the tram in the middle. The moderator who declined this artistic photo is a :fool: , to say it kindly. I am very very dissapointed. If such a picture is to be declined, then you can remove 60% of other photos on the site too. And I am seriously thinking about closing the profile.

Here are a few quickly found miscellaneus photos that were accepted although there is no specification of the vehicle, 2 of them are not sharp...etc

I'm not a photo moderator but I do share opinion with them - asphalt texture over half of the picture does not add anything artistic. Also, picture taken in the dark, does not automatically make it artistic. You were asked to attach the photo to a vehicle because it can be clearly identified - those are the rules.

On this website, photos are being moderated to match common standards so it wouldn't become a dumping ground for random crap. There is no point in blaming some moderator for not accepting your photo because this is wrong on it's own. It is a collective decision of several moderators which strictly follow their guidelines. You just have to accept it, just like you had to accept the site rules when you were creating your account.

For both your night photos, you could have done better. Use gloves / hat / nearby pebbles to raise camera lens from the ground so the tram would be in the center. Photo of 2219 is hopeless in terms of website requirements but 454 can still be accepted if you cut it to be somewhat like this: https://imgur.com/a/OzPBDtE

Not only tram, but what? Lots of ground? Sorry, but this ground has no value for public transport website. Otherwise, it's a normal vehicle photo, not a miscellaneus or artistic in our terms, so linking to vehicle only is a correct option.

Sorry, but it's more like a picture of ground with tram in the behind.
1. is a picture of infrastructure, 2. was published in 2009 - standards were way more lower, 3. is showing coupling of trams. No one of this three is similar in any way.
