Appreciate feedback on quality issue

Hello everyone! My photo was rejected due to quality issue. Wonder if it's because of the ground under-exposure in the bottom?

I also noticed the ring of noise in the bottom part of the sky but that's a common issue when shooting such photos in a full moon or highly light-polluted area. I thought that shouldn't be an issue?

Appreciate any suggestions from experts!

Thanks! Nice catch. The chromatic noise comes from stretching and stacking. Will surpress it and try again!

Hi @Sai21869788r7y6 ,

I like your picture as is. Zoom in at about 200% and examine the sky carefully. You will notice that it is grainy.  You will need to use the noise removal tool reduce the graininess. Also you could increase the exposure a bit more.

Best wishes

Nice picture.  Sadly, Stock customers don't make allowances for atmospheric conditions. 

You'll need to enhance this a little in Photoshop or Lightroom to get the most you can out of it.

Thanks! I'm going to try enhance again and see if that works.

I think you're correct. The bottom shadows could be opened up.
