What was the reason for rejection?
Is it not listed on your contributor page?

[Walace Rodrigues]

It is not clear for me. They sent a general idea of about quality. Could you just take a look and tell me what would be my mistakes on this photo?

[yamato7]

The shadows take up a large area, so I don't think these are good conditions for photography.
I think the same landscape would have turned out very differently if I had taken the photo from a different angle, at a different time of day, or on a different day.

A huge sucess for you, brother!

Quality issues is a very concrete idea about exposure, noise, white balance, artefacts ...

In your case, it's exosure:  it's overexposed (missing blacks). It's also lacking contrast. You can correct that and resubmit. In addition, I don't think that it is a very attractive picture, with this strange area in front of the picture. It could be worth to crop that area out.

Thank you so much! It's amazing to receive feedbacks about precise technics.

I Will use this picture to experiment every context you gave me.

For sure, from now on, I Will be more focused on these advices.

Thank you,
Walace

I did play around with your picture, if you are using Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw, you could try these parameters (please note that working the raw file would be better): 

You should also note that doing these edits does not necessarily lead to acceptance. I made these modifications on my iPad and some of the visual hints are not working here as I'm used to on my PC with my calibrated screens and Lightroom Classic. 

If you are using a different tool, you would need to find equivalent sliders.

Thank you so much! I'll take note all of theses topics of the app for practicing. 

It's really helpful!!!

Bye,

Hi @Walace Rodrigues ,

The composition is good. The highlights is high with a pale blue fringing on the edge of the trees.

In general there is an exposure problem as evident in the shadow.

This could be corrected in post processing by adding more black or shadow and reducing the highlights. 

There is another problem. I believe you shoot for the trees. If I'm correct, that's an incorrect way to frame landscape images. You get a sharper image if you aim at about 1/3 the distance from you, with a narrow aperture settings to get the depth.
