Help to understand the rejection

Hello,

someone can help me to understand the reason of reject for this image?

I suppose the overexposure in the houses to the right of image.

    The sky is a bit overexposed, and the shadows are a bit underexposed. You would also have to remove the sign on what appears to be a hotel on the far right in order to avoid an IP rejection.

    I suppose the refusal reason was quality issues? The right is overexposed, and there are sensor stains.

     

    What about IP? Builing at the right!

    With a quick glance around the photo at 100% view, I noticed quite a few imperfections.  

    • There are both areas that are too light and too dark in the photo that should be evened out.
    • There are sensor spots and artefacts in the sky.
    • As already noted, there is debris in the water that should be cloned out.  There are also sensor spots on the water.
    • The buildings on the right are overexposed, soft in focus, and the vertical lines of the house are noticeably skewed.  The auto vertical geometry correction in Lightroom fixed this.
    • I know this is a sunrise/sunset photo, but I think the white balance needs some tweaking.  I found the colors more pleasing with a slight shift towards magenta and a bit cooler.  That may be personal taste though.

     

    I hope this perspective helps.  Cheers!

    Yes, overexposure and a lot of stains in the water that could have been cleaned
