Hello,

Sorry, these photos aren't really any good for stock photos. The overall quality isn't good; problems with composition, exposure etc. They are fine as holiday shots, but how could these be used commercially? You have to think about that!

  • strong geometric corrections
  • missing contrast
  •  chromatic aberration

91:

  • Exposure problems, the foreground is underexposed, the sky is blown out.
  • Sharpness: I suspect camera shake.
  • Missing contrast
  • Some people in the picture would require a model release.

  • Exposure problems, foreground is underexposed, background is overexposed.
  • Missing contrast.
  • Colour noise.
  • Chromatic aberration.
  • IP violation: Taxis (identifiers), logos, building or business names, advertisings
  • Model releases needed. Some people require model releases, like the taxi drivers, the lady taking a photograph, ...

 

And I support @Ricky336's claim, that the overall value of these pictures is not good enough for stock. So even if they were technically correct, they would get refused, probably with aesthetics and commercial appeal.

    Thumbnails don't tell us anything. 

     

    That said, vacation snapshots might be OK for social media but they are not Stock worthy. 

     

    Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects -- i.e. posters, product packaging, print and digital ads, videos, movies, t-shirts, coffee mugs, calendars, etc...  Read these links.

      Nor do we, because we can't examine your pictures at high detail to see the technical problems, which is what Adobe's reviewers will do. Please post 1-3 (no more) original files - exactly as you uploaded them, not re-edited in any way.
