Quality Issues

[pauln60152483]

Would anyone be willing to provide some feedback as to why my images are being regjected for quality issues? I keep having images rejected but no real explination as to why

I picked two photos to review in depth, here are my thoughts:

549A2212:  When zooming to 100% view, the details of the bird and buoy appear blurry and hidden in the shadows.  There is a slight but noticeable halo around the bird.  There are dust spots, light spots, or artefacts that should probably be removed.  Looking at the Histogram, the blacks need to be pulled down a bit, and the whites need to be pulled up a bit.  I'm on the fence as to whether this photo appears too stylized.  Leaving some room for further adjustment by the customer definitely makes it a more useful commercial asset.

20230522_125240:  Zooming in to 100% view, focus appears soft to me.  There are also halos and artefacts around the buildings.

I hope that helps!

549A7156.jpg - does t seem to have anything in focus and the pattern in the sky would probably be considered an error by the moderator 

549A9062.jpg - underexposed and quite noisy. There are artifacts in the sky, a lens spot and objects intruding from both sides that should have been edited. The composition is lacking, and the line of blurry street lamps are distracting.

That pattern looks like photographing through a fence.

4912: There is still a light noise level to see, but I think the major problem with this picture are artefacts like this:

And then you have these points that look like sensor spots:

I would edit them out. You can refine your editing and then resubmit.
