Rejected - Just trying to understand the reasons and how to improve.

Photo 4: Possible IP issue with the fountain, underexposed shadows, too much magenta in the sky, a white spot and two sensor spots that needs to be removed and fringing along the trees.

#3 should have been rejected for IP issues. How would you feel if you were selling your photos at a show, and someone took a photo of your display, and then sold it for profit? Well, that's how the artist of the paintings would feel, if your photo of their paintings was used to sell cars or holidays. And they could sue the person who licensed it from Adobe. And that person could sue Adobe. And Adobe could sue you. Don't go there! Street scenes are a big problem because of this issue. (This is as well as the more obvious model releases needed).

#2 has blownout highlights; #3 is not in sharp focus and would have required model releases for the recognizable people;  #4 is blurry and noisy.

Hi,

I have only checked the first one, which is not sharp and has blown out highlights, with no details:

Hope that helps,

Michael
