Rejected due to:

"Poor Lighting--Poor or uneven lighting, or shadows. White balance may be incorrect.
Composition--Limited commercial value due to framing, cropping, and/or composition."

no mention about noise and focus. 200 ISO, f11.

I'm bit puzzled, comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Jerry

btw. approved by other major agency.

Without seeing a crop, all I can say is rejections are getting out of control and very sloppy. Looks good to me and very useful. sorry man.

Thank you Laurin, I appreciate your input.

I was disappointed, because I thought that if not the full frame, parts of it would be useful for a designer "playing with fire" :)

I will try to submit other pics of the same fire (less dramatic in my opinion)) and see what happens.

Cheers,

Jerry

Cool jerry. it does have an impression.Looking at your port you definitely know how to shoot. Nice coffee shot.

Starting to wonder if someone rewired the rejection and approval buttons.

It looks a teensy bit out of focus and underexposed to me. There are plenty of pictures of fire, so maybe they decided they didn't need this one since it's only 99% perfect.
