Question

Just starting with stock photo.  In order to suceed in the future,  I'd like to know why this images were rejected.  Thank you for your opinions

In the first image, it appears that you've replaced the background, but the cutout work was not well done given the jagged edges.

The second image has a lack of structure in the details, possibly from a camera with a small sensor - mobile phone? The label stickers should have been edited out.

Please note that @Jill_C did mention only a few of the issues. There are multiple artefacts and errors in relation with the fake DOF. Don't use that filter.

In addition to the multiple artefacts, you have also a suboptimal framing.

A cropping like this would help for a more pleasant impression:

As for your second image, you see the washed out colours and artificial structures due to the noise reduction and aggressive sharpening.

If the real image resolution was better, you could read the text on the stickers, and they would probably require a lot of picture editing. As they are presented now, they show artefacts due to the in camera optimization and the overprocessing because of the small sensor size.
