Photos rejected due to technical reasons

Hello,

As mentioned above, the composition of your pictures is a problem - so this means slopping horizon; you have exposure problems -the sun is burnt out - there is no detail. It's pure white; the car is in too much shadow, so this needs to be a bit lighter; B&W pictures don't do so well, the buyer can add their own effect; 4th and 5th pictures are underexposed as well as the general composition.

Hello KPChowdary,

Welcome to the Adobe community.

Please find attached some non-technical notes I have made.

Apologies in advance for handwriting on your work, I found it quicker and was with the sole purpose of providing some help beyond the "plain" rejection legend we all might have get once or more in our work. Photos are assumed to be yours and NO plagiarism intentions of any kind at all are suggested from my part. I hope this contribution helps to cover one part of that "big void" of multiple possible rejection reasons.

I am not an Adobe employee nor anybody to convince you about anything, I am just a dude trying to help people blowing off some steam when their work is rejected.

In other words, trying to provide an "out of the box" perspective. My contribution is with good intentions only and hopefully produce at least one smile.

For more formal and professional comments listen to the guys that clearly know what they are talking about.

Keep shooting, learning, observing, and specially, having fun!

Cheers,

KPChowdary,

Your horizon must be horizontal, except in the cases of natural slopes.

Welcome in the comunity. Here are a few comments. I hope they will help.

Picture 1, 3 and 5: Picture with non-straight horizon do not sell.

Picture 2: Nice scene, I like the ambiance. Over-exposed sky, under-exposed car, contrast is too strong.

Picture 3: Nice silhouette. Probably reject because of under exposure. A model release is required.

Picture 4: Nice composition. Under-exposed.

Keep shoting! Keep having fun!
