This picture was rejected by: It appears that your image is out of focus.
For me that's ok. But I don't agree with this reason just because this image is as much in focus as it can be. It was shoot underwater using a 16mm fisheye nikkor.
Water is about 800 times thicker than air and also have a lot more "dust" in suspension.
That's the main reason for always shooting as close of possible from the subject.
That's why i use a 16mm fish eye to shoot such large subjects as wrecks and big reef scenics.
This kind of images as I understand always tend to look like above water images with fog (Not so pin sharp as we like them) but I guess no one is expecting to get them as sharp as some close up of a flower.
What do you think??

You are right that this image is not out of focus, it is in fact a very nice photo. The problem with this photo (this goes for a lot of your diving photos) is that it was originally captured on film, then scanned, and submitted to us in a very high resolution. This particular photo was submitted with a resolution of 5472 x 3590 pixels, and it goes without saying, that when our inspectors view this at 100% size, it's not going to look very sharp. Therefore, I would suggest that ahead of submitting images such as this one, you could consider down-sizing the image somewhat, in the case of the discussed image, a width of 4000 pixels should make the image work better at 100%, without any noticeable loss of detail.
In general, anyone who feel that an image of theirs was obviously judged incorrectly by our inspectors, should e-mail us at help@crestock.com. Though we strive to monitor the work of our inspectors, we also want to hear from you if clearly erroneous reviews have been made.

Thanks Crestock for your answer.
I'll do that and resubmit the file.
