Image editing / quality

Most of the images require light retouching. Dust and scratches must be removed. Take pictures in as low an ISO setting as possible. Check the RAW file has a correct exposure. Color cast, and any other adjustments should be made in this phase. Save the file as jpg. Interpolation, over-sharpening and supersaturation is not allowed.

Images that do not meet these requirements cannot be accepted.
