Why were these 8 photographs rejected?

Hi,

I had submitted these 8 photographs but they got rejected due to technical issues. Can you help me understand why?

the photos are too small to examine.

I can't tell much from low-res thumbnails.  We need the full size image to critique.

The charcuterie (cheese board) looks underexposed and the camera angle looks awkward to me.  Compare yours with what's already represented on Adobe Stock.  As a Stock customer, which would you buy?

You will know, I'm sure, that the photo checkers will zoom in to 100% or 200% on the original image to check your fine details. If you'd like our opinion you need to share the actual original image. Just 1 or 2 though, thanks.

The food photographs are poorly lit and not well composed. The food looks messy, and the angle of view shifts the focus away from the food. The first 2 photos with the boat are over-saturated and have a White Balance problem; the 2nd has a leaning horizon. Can't verify focus in these small thumbnails. Zoom in to each of your images at 100% to carefully inspect them.
