i sent in a image of a train bridge and it was rejected.

 

So i went back to the site and redid the photo.

it was the same location as the first but shot in a totally differ method.

thanks for he help

You did not post the pictures, so we can only speculate, but what I can say is that the similar content rejection is not applicable to rejected assets. So if an asset is rejected for similar content, it's no because a content has been rejected prior to this rejection, but because it has been accepted before.

 

Please look also in this: https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/help/similar-vs-spamming.html

to answer some of your replies

sorry i did not post the photos but i did not think it was relivant to the subject

the first image was shot off hand and background was not clear

second inage was taken on tripod with larger fstop to make the entire imge clear.

when i submitted the senond photo i recieved message that phot looked similar to another and was rejected.  

well it was prettey much the same image but shot differently

i will look for the two images to compare

thanks again

sam

Another possibility - I have no idea if it applies as you have not showed us the pictures...

Specialist photo libraries are often rejected for similarity, no matter how well photographed. If you have the world's finest library of train bridge photos, to a casual eye many of them will look very similar. A commercial photographer needs to be constantly creating new concepts to fit the market.

Hello @Sprynda , you can resubmit rejected images as often as needed. There is no limit. If you become the rejection reason based on similarity to a previous image, this means that this image is similar to a previously approved image. They do not have to be the same; only similar.

Resubmitting without addressing the issue could be considered as spam. Don't abuse… But effectively, a couple of iterations is allowed.

On re-submit, did you re-name the file or use the exact same filename?

Maybe it looks too much like every other train bridge in Adobe Stock's vast inventory.

But without seeing the image, we can't comment on it either way.

 

Compare yours with what's already been accepted by Adobe Stock.  Is yours uniquely different?  Is the quality 100% better?
