Here's one of mine...

my reject

Damn Brit · 08-06-2008, 07:58 PM

Rosemary, that first one has a horrible yellowish green caste to it, no wonder it was rejected. Did you sneeze on the lens or something?

Thanks

I guess what I felt was the strangest rejects were my impressionistic photos. I don't think some people get them

Good thing gallery owners dont feel that way

Some good shots in the thread.
I've only recently started voting, so none that I really can remember

When my 1st submission got right in I was feeling "all that" & all. Granted I didn't try with too many more, but I haven't gotten any more in.

This one seemed to garner a lot of compliments in a weekly challenge I submitted it in, and I was feeling good about it, but after a long delay, nope:

This was rejected pretty quickly... that surprised me. It's one of my very favorite images I've taken. It became obvious I shouldn't submit w/my heart.

Since you waited long for the first one, it likely got the go from users, but no from judges.
I like the second one as well.

I'm pretty surprised too, how Marc Langille shots were not accepted either. Maybe people thought the photos were from a Zoo. I think PPG could use some more good wildlife mammal shots

The PPG format also doesn't lend itself well to a portrait image format, as it's the height that is limited, not the longest dimension be it portrait or landscape.

Well, panorama shots are not allowed

I really like these two. I would have given these the thumbs up if I was voting on them.

How'd it turn out? (might be too soon)

I just added two... If anyone sees a couple of images called "Falcon" please vote (+).

; hoping you think it deserves it too!

Thanx much for picking mine out of the outstanding group to comment on. For sure I agree on your comment about Marc too!

TaoMaas, #1 & especially #3 are outstanding in my opinion.

How long does it take for your photos to get accepted/rejected?

I added three at one time. One has been processed but the other two have been sitting there some time (2 weeks?).

Sometimes you wait 2 months for them to be rejected...

Sometimes just 2 weeks.

Here's mine.

I haven't tried submitting anymore images since.

I had some sit for three weeks while the last two were posted on Sunday and rejected on Monday. Figured there wasn't much voting being done on the last ones.

one thing, unless they have changed, is if you convert your photo to black and white I think you have violated one of the rules.

I've got black and whites in the gallery. That's not a violation of the rules.

btw here's some of my recent rejects (no they weren't submitted with the watermarks or frames):
