Rejected photos

[Wildflower888]

I'd love to get some feedback on these pictures, can you let me know why they would have been rejected? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

One comment I can make is that you should remove the shadow.

Thank you, I will try reducing the shadows and submit again.

Were they rejected for quality issues? I like the first one most, since the subject is composed with more context and placed in a specific environment.  I'm on my consumer-grade laptop, which doesn't display the greatest detail, but the histogram on the second one shows the highlights could be lowered and the shadows opened up.

Thank you @daniellei4510 , they were rejected for quality issues but I didnt get any more information than that!

"but I didnt get any more information than that!"

And you never will. That's what this forum is for, as the moderators do not have the time to comment individually on rejected assets. 🙂

Assuming they were refused for Quality/Technical issues, your focus could be sharper. Use a wider depth-of-field.
