Correct answer Abambo

Check your pictures at 100% and you will see many artefacts. I also think that the asset is out of focus, but looking from my phone, that is a bit difficult to appreciate.

 

Edit:

This is your asset seen at 100%. In addition, the scripture may represent an IP violation. I do not read Arabic, but given that there is a logo on the cup, I guess that if it hadn't been refused with Quality Issues it would get an IP strike. You should take neutral cups for such pictures.

With the handle cut off on the side and the background table angle appearing crooked, I think this photo isn't composed very well.  I agree with @Abambo that there are noticeable artefacts.  I wonder if heavy sharpening has been applied to try to correct soft focus?

The “soft focus” looks like camera shake.

Let me help you with that 🙂

The text on the tea-cup reads "Michelin" just like the tyres brand or the restaurant's star rating.

Thanks! Then definitely another reason for rejecting the asset...
