Hello,

The main issue, I think, with your pics is exposure, composition and focus.

Have a read of these guides from Adobe - it might help to understand what they are looking for.

Another important thing is the commercial usefulness of the images - how can they be used commercially?!

IMG_2048.jpg - the entire image is blurry

IMG_0316.jpg - nothing in sharp focus

Boat.jpg - focus seems to be the problem here also

cat.jpg - very little in focus and not well composed

The purple flowers. Nothing is in focus.
