Hello, this was my first time submitting content to Adobe and most of my submissions were rejected and I was just wondering why. I'm a complete beginner when it comes to photography so I was hoping to get some ideas on what I did wrong with these photos. Any help would be much appreciated.

The light entering the lens is causing underexposure. While I like the effect, it might be a little too artsy for stock. I opened up the shadows and saturated the blues a bit, which may or may not help the asset pass inspection if you were to try to do the same.
