Dear all,
Many thanks in advance for your help. I submitted some shots to istockphoto last week and was rejected on the grounds of same subject. The three photos were:


AT 100% http://www.tuscanyfortwo.com/_DSC0641W.jpg


AT 100% http://www.tuscanyfortwo.com/_DSC0718W.jpg


AT 100% http://www.tuscanyfortwo.com/_DSC0735W.jpg

So I tried again last night but was rejected for the following reason:
At this time we regret to inform you that we did not feel the overall composition of your photography or subject matter is at the minimum level of standard for iStockphoto. Please take some time to review training materials, resources and articles provided through iStockphoto. The photographs provided in your application should be your best work. Try and impress us, we want to see how you stand out from the crowd.

The photos this time were:

Californian Poppies

Bristlecone Pine

If anyone could enlighten me as to why they weren't accepted or give any constructive criticism I'd be very grateful as I looked up each of the subjects on istockphoto before uploading them and thought they were relatively similar in quality and were of reasonable composition? ?

Many thanks again
Liz
