Hello,

Screenshot using Photoshop Camer Raw Plugin with some small corrections:

Original- your shot, as shown on my monitor - the colours are a bit too intense:

A print screen of your shot as shown on my monitor:

It looks flat.

So, did you increase the saturation? If so, it's why it looks on our monitors oversaturated, whereas on your monitor it looks fine.

A point to think about. Did you by any chance edit yours on an HDR monitor? If so, if you edit a photo on an HDR monitor, and then it is viewed on a standard SDR monitor, the viewing will be bad.

I suspect that when the moderators were viewing this photo on their monitors, it also looked oversaturated, hence the rejection!

And hence your question as the colours looked fine on your monitor.

Hi @alexeys81737499 ,

It's a sunny day. The sunny area of your picture is too cool. Two factors of your picture contribute to this, the picture is underexposed and also the presence of a white-balance issue.

Hi Jacquelin,

Thank you for your input. I hope you're checking the image with a calibrated monitor. I really don't see an issue with exposure or white blance. Here's the histogram.

Some other images from the same location and shooting conditions were accepted.

Thanks again,

Alexey.

Here's what my histogram is showing, with the highlights clearly burnt out. The image below was adjusted for the highlights and I lowered the saturation a bit. Not necessarily perfect, but closer.
