Hello. I just received two rejections which I do not quite understand.

The first one is a contrast rejection. I am not sure if the contrast is not enough or too harsh.

The second one is a dark/underexposed rejection. The screener(s) commented 'Dark tones too dark' however I am not sure what that means. How can I improve the photo?

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!

Hello, may I have a prescreen on this one? I am not sure whether the image is too bright.

Too dark/harshly contrasted in fact.

Hello. I got this photo rejected for being undersharpened (soft):

https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10642841

However, I do not quite agree with it. Can I get an opinion on whether I should attempt for an appeal? Thanks in advance!

A bit soft in spots, but not that bad for me. Borderline chance at appeal.

Borderline at best contrast.

Hello, regarding to this rejection for horizon unlevel and underexposed:

https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=10447702

I have no idea how should I correct the horizon, can anyone give me some hints/suggestions? (P.S. I do not quite agree with the underexposed part, is it really dark? )
Thanks in advance!

Horizon can be tricky on those HKG approaches, but I can't see anything that says it's not level. Also bright enough for me.

Hello, may I have a prescreen on this one (or is this possible to be uploaded) ? Thanks!
I think the new nose cone made the 'raccoon' more like a raccoon.

Looks a bit dark, but would otherwise be ok for me.

Hello. Recently this photo was rejected two times due to exposure and contrast issues.
For the first time, it was rejected for 'underexposed' and 'too much or too little contrast'. Attachment as below:

For the second time, it was rejected for 'Overexposed' and 'Too much or too little contrast'. Attachment as below:

Now I've re-edited the photo and would like to give a 3rd try. (Attachment as below) May I know does it clear up the issues above? If not, how should I make further adjustments to the photo?

First rejection seems a bit harsh; most recent edit would be acceptable for me.
