can you help me why my work is not accepted and how to fix it?

[thepunisherbm]

The following photos were denied with the message "technical issues".

Can you help me understanding why?

[@MNiessenPhoto · Accepted solution]

#1 washed out colors, not sharp, fringing

#2 lack of sharpness and contrast, noise, chromatic aberration and big spot (dirty lens) that should have been removed

Hope that helps,

Michael

The white balance appears to be incorrect for the first photo. It is very bluish. For the second photo, I would brighten the shadows.

Hello,

In the sky of the 'sunset' shot you have chroma noise:

You can see some 'coloured splotches' of pixels. The shadows are a bit dark as well.

I also think the white balance is not good for the first photo. I think it is bit too blue as well.
