PHOTO: Strawberry Dessert: Refusal on illumination is not clear

I was refused in acceptance of photo  https://i.istockimg.com/file_thumbview_approve/20223502/2/stock-photo-20223502-strawberry-ice-cream.jpg  With an explanation: In review of this file, we found the lighting underexposed.




I cannot understand ?????????. In my opinion all a semitone correspond.


Help to understand that I do not so with illumination.

Please do post up the full size file as requested in the Read This First, but even from the small thumbnail I would agree that it looks underexposed...
