Newbie: Submissions so far come back as rejected because of Technical issue?

Question

Shutterstock seem to give more detailed feedback rather than just " technical issue". Would appreciate some help in knowing how to improve submssions. Thank you.

The Audi picture has colour noise all around. The good news is that colour noise is easy to correct. The bad news is that there is also a significant amount of luminosity noise. With the picture not being in focus, and a lot of noise, I think that you can't get this one to be accepted. If you only have Lr at your disposal, I doubt that you can easily edit out the Audi logo. Incidentally, I doubt that Shutterstock did accept this picture as this.

The plane has, in addition to @RALPH_L's comments, also a white balance problem. And there is chromatic aberration on the rudder. If you sharpen, you need to reduce the noise, which is a challenge to correct both adequately.

The house is very tightly cropped. I doubt that it gets accepted, even with Ralph's proposed corrections. You may however give it a try.

Hello @lukafoto , in the first photo you need to do some sharpening. Also you need to remove all identifiable markings on the rudder. The shadows (on the rudder) are underexposed.

The second photo has some color noise in the sky. The depth of field should have been deeper. The highlights (headlight) are overexposed and the shadows are underexposed (front right fender). Also the Audi sign needs to be removed. The third photo needs to be straightened and cropped properly. Also the sharpness needs improvement. Also the shadows are under exposed.

Here is an example of what I mean:
