The rejection reasons are listed - private residence and pedestrian access were picked.
I'm guessing the pedestrian access reason is because there doesn't appear to be a footpath leading to the nomination and you have to stand on the road to access it.
The private residence reason is likely because it looks like it's in someone's garden (if you can call it a garden in the middle of a desert haha), judging by street view and satellite view. The fact it appears to be someone's mail box (which I notice that you tried to crop out of view) would support this rejection reason being correct.
You cannot nominate something within the property line of a single family Private Residential Property, and the "sculpture" does not meet any Niantic acceptance criteria. Correctly rejected.
Also, it's a terrible photo. Your shadow on the ground could be seen as "submitter identifiable." I have no idea what I'm looking at. According to someone else that might be because you didn't photograph the whole thing since it's really a mailbox.
I reviewed this and rejected it for being on private single-family residence property. I try to be reasonably generous in areas with little options for POIs, but it's a decorative fixture attached to a residential mailbox; it just doesn't qualify. I've seen lots of good nominations in Yuma recently, so you and others in your community should be getting a lot of new POIs.
