Default IStockPhoto Rejection

I submitted three images (below) to Istock and they rejected two of them for being over processed and approved the one that had the most PP done to it... Add this to my Getty rejection and I'm batting 1000%! But if someone can help steer me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Forget Istock, they have always been difficult to deal with-go for Shutterstock or Bigstock,where you will meet very helpful and friendly people on the forums. Ken

The problem is some people call themselves photographers when they aren't. The don't realize you have to have any eye create a good picture and not just a p&s or cell phone camera.
