Reject photos

[Michael Jin]

I get a photo rejected for technical issues. Can you tell me why and how to fix it. Thank you very much!

Cool photo, but when you look at it at 100% magnification, you can see the noise throughout the fog.

Also, it looks like you have sensor spots (small dark circles) throughout the image.

Thank you very much for your comment. I use lightroom to reduce noise and remove senser spots. Is it better now?

At 100% magnification, it is still very noisy and you missed a few sensor spots and artifacts.  I've tried to attach a small section to show.  Hopefully, I have done it correctly.

In truth, I am not sure if you could even remove the noise whether the photo would ever be accepted because of the fog causing the soft focus.  But I still think it is a cool photo.

Hello,

Your second attempt isn't much better I'm afraid. Zoom in to 100% and you can still see signs of artifacts - noise in this case - colour noise.

You may have oversharpened this.

Fog is usually best when applied to a technically perfect image in post-editing.
