I'm assuming this photo was rejected. It's quite blurry, overexposed and has leaning verticals.

This community is for Stock Contributors seeking feedback on rejected images.

What was the rejection reason Adobe Stock gave you?

 

Unfortunately, this image doesn't meet commercial standards.  See links below for more details. Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects:  billboard & TV ads, magazines, posters, t-shirts, tote bags, calendars, etc..

Hi,

 

General speaking, before you submit, please review the submission guidelines carefully and compare your work with other Stock inventory. To be accepted, your work should be as good or better than what's already represented in your keyword category. Be aware that Photos for Stock Agencies should have some commercial and selling Character for the Customers.
