Correct answer Jill_C

Did you submit this to Adobe Stock? If so, I'm assuming it would be rejected because it's not sharply focused, overexposed and not well composed. Adobe Stock already has many millions of floral images, and yours would never be seen or sold. Try to find a more unique subject to photograph.

Hi,

 

I'm sure you can understand that we can not do a full Tutorial on how to get better photos, but there are lots of those out there on youtube, vimeo or other video platforms.

For this specific Image it maybe be that it has a to shallow sharp area and lack of sharpness overall. Try to look at other Photos of flowers and look for that kind of technical quality in your own photos.

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.

Hope that helps.

@Jill_C said it all.  There's nothing remarkable here.  It's just a snapshot of a typical flower.

 

If you really want to improve, enroll in some photography courses and join a local photography club.  Clubs are great for meeting people and going out on photo field trips together. 

 

Hope that helps.
