With much talk lately of rejections and how demoralising they can be, I would like to once again draw attention to the "Reasons" given which are frequently way off the mark and often farcical.

I mean, how can a batch of images be judged as all “out of focus”, or when clearly they are not. This is all the more questionable when some shots are landscapes which have been taken with apertures of F16 or more.
F16 or higher is not a guarantee of a sharp image. In fact, most lenses are best around the mid aps.
