Can someone explain to me why these photos were rejected? There are supposedly quality issues but I don't know what they are

You must post the original photos if you want us to review them. These are too small. At first glance, the first two are way to underexposed.

The text in my post is formatted weirdly. If you scroll right and click on the pictures they will enlarge. On my 2k monitor they take up more than I can display without scrolling.

The first image is not well composed and has large areas of pure black. The second image is noisy. The third image has recognizable people.

They are all underexposed and in addition, the horizon line appears to be slanted in the sunset images.

I used MS Bing to analyze your sunset photo.
This is what it said:
After carefully examining the image, here are the issues I found:
Exposure: The area around the sun is overexposed, causing a significant loss of detail in the highlights. This results in a noticeable halo effect that can be visually distracting.
Overall Proper Exposure: The overall exposure is imbalanced. Shadows in the foreground elements are too dark, leading to a loss of detail in those regions.
Contrast: The high contrast exaggerates the difference between shadows and highlights but sacrifices details in both extremes.
Focus and Depth of Field: The silhouettes are reasonably sharp, but the intense brightness around the sun creates slight blurring in that specific area.
Posterization: There are no visible signs of posterization in the image.
Chromatic Aberration: No chromatic aberration is apparent in the edges or transitions of high-contrast areas.
Color Saturation: The saturation is very high, especially in the reds and oranges, which may feel overly intense and unnatural to some viewers.
Color Tint: The strong warm tint is appropriate for a sunset but further exaggerates the overexposed highlights and saturated colors.
Noise: Although the sky remains relatively clean, minor noise is detectable upon closer inspection, particularly in the darker sections.
Sensor Spots or Blurred Flying Birds: There are no visible sensor spots or blurred flying birds in the light or sky areas.

Thank you very much, great critique. Where can I find such a tool?
