Rejection for Technical Reasons

[Henry5C12]

Hi,

this was my first upload and I was super-excited to have some images accepted. This one didn't make it and I'd love to get some feedback as to why that happened - I'm keen to learn and avoid at least rookie mistakes!

Thanks in advance,

Henry

Hello, actualy I think the image is pretty much okay. It could be a little sharper and a little less noisy in the sky. The sky is also a little to vibrant. There is also a small blue spot to the right of the latern that should be removed.

Hi @Henry5C12 ,

If you zoom in on your photo at between 100 and 200% you will observe that there are blue color fringing around the edges of the twigs and branches of the taller trees. It is a bit noisy and probably too saturated.

Hey, thanks guys for the input. I'm trying to "feel for" the limits of what's acceptable - I thought this photo was a bit different and wanted to submit it, but there was originally a phone line pole with hanging lines beneath and touching the right cross-beam on the lamp which was very tricky to remove in Photoshop - that left the blue fringing and smudging.

Ah well, just need to take better pictures! 

Thanks again..
