Correct answer Abambo

Focus on the trees could be improved, but the colour banding was probably the refusal reason.

I see colour stripes in the fog. In addition, the image is out of focus.

At 100% magnified, the tree is in focus. Thanks for the info on the stripes

Again...

Fixing the picture does not guarantee success, unfortunately.

I will merge the two threads. As topic, you should select “Contributor critique”. 🙂 Fixing that too.

Looking at the histogram of your original picture, you are missing whites and blacks.

Looking at the new picture's histogram, you are missing blacks and part of the shadows, maybe also a fraction of whites.

The colour banding has been corrected, but you still have clipping.
