I expected a cloudy rejection, but got...

Hello everyone!
I thought I'd get on here, so I could complain...
What are your thought's on the screener's reasoning behind this rejection? It's obviously cloudy, so I don't think I'll try again. After thinking about it for a while, I wondered if they thought the crew was trespassing, but that would mean they didn't read the caption (or do they ever read those? ).

Thanks!

Yea, I dont see a PEQ unless they thought the crew was railfans. I do like including the crew in the shot.

The water tower above the b-unit, perhaps?

And I was in Bucyrus at the same time by the T&OC depot and it was perfectly sunny, but it doesn't look that way in this photo.

Why would you upload a photo you expect to get rejected to begin with?

Nothing says they are NS employees to me. I see two people who appear to be foaming over an epic cloudy day photo they just took.. lol

And I figure that's exactly what the screener thought too.

It would have been nailed for the poor lighting or common / cloudy anyway.

It's all part of the fun of submitting! I've had a few "doubtfuls" get on and surprise me.

If they are the crew, they better hope a manager doesn't see that picture...no safety vests or any other PPE, standing in the guage and what is he doing? Playing with his phone? Well whatever it is, they are standing in the guage not paying any attention. None of that probably has to do with why the photo was rejected...only one person knows why it was really rejected, the rest of us can just guess.

All of the above. You should have taken a shot without those guys, whoever they are.
