Hey guys, can you help me, I would like to know why this image was rejected.

Correct answer Jill_C

Very little in focus, the background is messy, the sky is blown out, and the shadows underexposed. I get what you're trying to do here, isolating the leaves with sunlight on them, but to do this effectively, you need a much cleaner background. Also, try to imagine how a Buyer would use such an image...

You could have isolated more, so as to eliminate the milky sky and some branches on the left of the photo. What did you use? A catadioptric?
