Rejected over missing generative AI flag and quality issue

Hi, I'm new here and recently I faced with an issue that my image is missing generative AI flag (the sunset one), which I'm confused because I didn't create it using AI (just using my smartphone camera). Can anyone enlighten me?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, why is this image (the sunny one) getting rejected? I hope someone want to share. Thank you.

Start saving now for a 24+ megapixel camera & accessories. A smartphone has a very small sensor and is only good in ideal lighting conditions (full daylight).  You won't have a good experience fighting with limited equipment.

Enroll in some photography courses and join a camera club to learn how to use & care for your camera. There's a lot more to photography than just aim & click. 

 

Hope that helps.

I think the Moderator chose the wrong rejection reason for the first image. It's quite noisy and should have received a quality rejection; the second image is lacking sharp detail, looks like it was taken with a small sensor camera, possibly a mobile phone.

I can't speak for the sunset one, perhaps it would be worth resubmitting it under aother file name.  As for the other, the horizon is at an angle, I would also edit out the partial boat, the person and the telegraph wires as they are all just distractions.

If you can edit out the quality issues noted above, then you can resubmit it.
