Hello, I resized a large image to 6M, 300 dpi and sent it for an art jury as a jpeg but found out it was compressed to 425K.  What is wrong? Thank you

    JPEG is a lossy compression format conceived explicitly for making photo files smaller and it exploits the imperfect characteristics of our perception.
