Looking for a little review (File Declined for "Technical Error")

[SeanMRice]

Kinda scratching my head as to why this was declined, maybe someone has a few moments for some input?

Nice shot of my hometown icon - Mt. Hood. Black and white is not a big seller for Adobe but how about taking the person out on the right and resubmitting it. Make sure it is clean and as sharp as you can get it. GIve it a try, you might get an answer either way. JH

Some strange dots in the sky to the left. Also maybe too high ISO? I agree with Joan - the person is too small in the picture, and the main part of the motif lies in shadows which is not good.

Most likely rejected because of being in B&W. Always submit in colour!

Thanks all, I appreciate the feedback.  I've sold this image before elsewhere, so it left me a bit puzzled with the vague rejection.  I'm new to stock photography, so we'll see how it goes in the future based on your ideas and recommendations.  Have a wonderful day.
