Got 11 rejections out of 63 ("technical issues"), not complaning, some aren't that good and I agree.

But What are your thoughts about these 3 please?, Thanks! (First time here, and you can clearly see that because I typed my email as my community user name... I tried to change it, but didn't work, do you know what else can I do?, lol   mega thanks):

Correct answer Ricky336

Pictures are over-saturated I think, and too tightly framed. There is not enough room around the subject. Not enough in focus - the bee - only the very top part.

Have a read of this from Adobe about how to create better photos.

    Hi vences,

    I try to be clear and concise when giving feedback. I think about what I write and how.

      You see artefacts and the sharpness is not as it shold be.

       

      Bee picture: White balance is not good, only a small area of the bee is in focus, all the rest of the picture is out of focus.

       

      In general: All three pictures are oversaturated.

        They are fun pictures to look at, but unfortunately they won't sell. Pictures taken will a small sensor are often rejected due to noise, which is the case here. 52 "approved" out of 63, with a small senor: this is quite good. My main concern is the narrow depth-of-field of your three pictures. Just a tiny area is in focus. When doing macro, you might want to try using a smaller opening (f/16 - f22). Also, applying a simple rule-of-third would help. Keep shooting, keep uploading, and keep having fun.
