I wonder why my picture is not approved...

Is there a problem with the quality of these pictures?

....Or did I fail to comply with the rules?

I'd appreciate it if you could tell me what's wrong with these photos.

Post-processing should be done all all photos. You have a nice photo which can easily be adapted for  stock photography. Leave some empty space. Crop out the distractions. Adjust the lighting. Sharpen!

Notice the difference?

Oh, you are very kind.

It would have been cumbersome to work on examples....😖,

but it was easier for me to understand because you showed me this.....

I came to think that I need to edit the picture a little more.....🧐 Thank you for your help!!👍

Greetings!

-The Black rabbit had very little in focus when zooming in on the details.  I think that the rabbit would also benefit from having some contrast added.  The overexposed snow could also be considered a quality issue, but I think with the rabbit in focus and well exposed that it would at least have a shot at passing.  But I also think it would make more sense to just have a rabbit on a white background.

-The cat also doesn't have much in sharp focus when zooming in on the details, and has visible noise while zoomed in.  There is also a yellow colorcast.

-A road not taken:  The image is overexposed and lacking contrast, Only the dock is in sharp focus and there is visible noise at 100% view.  Viewing the Histogram was helpful to spot the overexposure in this one.


In general, it's between 100% - 200% view that the quality issues really show themselves.  

I hope that helps 🙂
