Photo rejected

[Guest]

Hello, can anyone tell me why this photo is rejected? I'm new here. Thanks for your help.

Adobe gave you a reason why it was rejected. Please tell us Adobe's reason (for example, IP violation, technical problems - it has both of these for sure), so we do not waste your time with guesses.

Hello, Adobe's reason is technical problems, but that's too general for me. I'd like to learn from the mistakes.

You may need to remove the school name on the building.

The focus point is not good. The boats light tower is not focused.

There is a white halo on parts to be seen. See photo below.

The school name is a good point. Although this is NOT the rejection reason, they stop on the first one.

The school name is not something accidentally in the shot. You want to make money by selling pictures based on the school's name. You need permission from the school to use the picture of their building unless it is over 100 years old. You need permission from the school to use their NAME in the picture OR the keywords in all cases (no time limit). They have the right to decide their good name cannot be used to advertise any product.

They stop on the first one, that is correct, but also if they detect more reasons the same time as may well be with this picture, they give the reason that is not correctable first, just to avoid getting the picture back with the school name removed. But yes, as soon as the moderator sees defects, he pushes the refusal reason and goes on with the next one.

There has been aggressive in-camera processing due to the small sensor. You see that in the background with those washed out colours instead of the nice bokeh and depth of field one would expect.

Technical issues are anything that is not correct from a technical point of view: noise, chromatic aberration, sensor dust, out of focus, saturation, white balance, framing etc.

If that all would be correct, you would have got an IP violation because of identifiable parts in the picture (including the logo and possibly also the school name).
