I have very few PNG photo rejects from Adobe, from which I cannot determine why, and then re-submit where it is accepted. This one, however, has me stumped. The focus, detail, and overall quality appear to be OK...what am I missing?
I should note, the original file size was over 6 MB, but I downsized this photo due to a 5 MB limit.

Check your original in the Histogram panel. I’m seeing plenty of midtones, but not enough highlights & shadows.
