My first photo has been rejected and I hope you can advise me why. Thank you.

Both images have been quite over-processed. In the eagle image, edges have halos, which usually indicates over-sharpening. The feather detail is completely missing from the bird which has very noticeable artifacts. The flower image has also been processed to create an unnatural effect. Adobe expects images to be processed subtly, retaining their natural, realistic appearance.

Hi @jerrejames ,

The first photo appears to be over sharpened. It has noise/grains. It also has excess chromatic noise and there is a halo around the edge.

The flowers has the same issues, but the chromatic noise is to a lesser degree. 

You need to examine you photos at between 100 and 200% for flaws and correct them before uploading. Your colors need to be smooth with no freckles of grains. The edge need to be sharp. It would be good for you to examine the quality of the photos that are accepted. You need to pay attention to the list of reasons for rejection here, and you may find additional tip at this page that shows what is required to earn from your photos.

I hope this helps

Best wishes

Jacquelin

    That seems to be two photos. Please give the rejection reason that Adobe used for each one (may be different).  Also, what camera did you use and how did you process the file? The first is a magificent moment, but if you look at it at 100%, it doesn't look quite right:
