Can't locate specific image — originally found in stock.adobe search

Bugs are frustrating, and that's what I'd call this — a bug. I always try to capture an asset ID if I think an image might get used, but every now and then it gets missed...and you run into this. Sometimes Adobe fixes bugs, sometimes you live with them a long time before they get enough notice for something to happen, and sometimes they persist forever.

That's probably true, if you have the asset ID. As explained in the original post, I do not.

This is a constant frustration of mine. Adobe Stock does not seem to have a reverse image search; it only yields similar images. And somehow, it does not find the exact image even though it is technically the most similar.

The asset ID should give you the path to the image.

Update: I went to freepik.com (english language version) and performed a reverse lookup there — success, found the image immediately. Fortunately this same client has a freepik account so I downloaded the image there. Maybe you're thinking I got confused and originally found the image on freepik and went back to stock.adobe thinking it was there — but no, this image came up in my stock.adobe search yesterday, there's no doubt about it. So I'll call this a search bug and move on now.
