Photo Critique / Application to Istock: Rejections
« on: February 13, 2009, 15:40 »
Hi everyone,
I applied to Istock and uploaded my 3 samples, and about a week later I got an email back from them saying,
"The iStock administrators have asked that you upload new samples based on the feedback provided below. You're welcome to return in 3 days, upload some new samples and we'll re-process your application.
Comments from the iStockphoto Administrator:
Park_Summer_080607__DSC6515-Edit-3.jpg: Rejected
We found this file over filtered from its original appearance/quality."
The other two had the same rejection reason, and are similar shots. So, I guess I'm looking for a critique, or more clear reasons why it was rejected. I did retouch them, and I think I can see now why they rejected these images, but I wanted to hear your opinions.
Here is one of them:

So, by them saying that I should upload new samples, can I just upload my original three, and just not touch them up as much? Or should I upload different shots?
Thanks.
