Hi! Any ideas why this image was rejected? Seemes to be sharp enough even for object tracked in motion

You may need to add some intelligent sharpening to this picture, but you need also to correct the lens distortion and chromatic aberration.

The somewhat weak lens quality introduces at the edges, e.g. the ship's bow, unsharpness that is hard to compensate.

Thanks! I think it will be better to shot it again with different light. Seemes like sunset angle may produce more abberations on thin lines than with straight light in the middle of the day. And yes, it's a drone shot, DJI Mavic 2 pro

Go a little higher. Lenses get weaker at the borders. If that is water, it will not be noticed.

Hello,

I also don't think it is sharp enough. Not when you enlarge it - ok for screenshots - e.g. smartphones -  but not if you want to increase the size. I guess this is a drone shot. The resolution on drones is not so great, but then this of course depends on the price!

Sorry, but it is not sharp enough. Also, the letters on the life boats may need to be removed.
