Both photos have focus issues and artifacts. The second photo also has a white halo.

Hello,

I think you have applied too much post-processing. This can cause problems like Ralph pointed out!

Thank you Ralf for your explanations regarding the rejection of my photos. I understand that you are very uncompromising on the quality of the proposed photos. Therefore, I wonder why the (exactly) same photos were accepted when uploaded by contributor "ArtPictures" (#447134986 and #447130669) who has picked them from my accounts "unsplash" ( https://unsplash.com/@jpdvg ) or "pixabay" ( https://pixabay.com/fr/photos/d%C3%A9sert-sable-dune-patron-sec-4820684/ and https://pixabay.com/fr/photos/travel-europe-nature-spain-6470467/  ). Can you tell me the reason why two photos of mine have been differently judged when uploaded by two different contributors ?
Best regards, JP

Different agencies, different standards. We all have the same issue. Some of my photos are accepted by one agency but refused by another. That is just the way it is. Sometimes it is not even the quality. For instance when I submit a 30MB photo to Sutterstock it often gets refused because of noise even though accepted by Adobe. If I reduce the image to 5MB it gets accepted. The standards and checks are not the same everywhere.
