Image was not accepted due to technical issues

Question

I would like to know the problem with my picture submitted - technical issues are not really a helpful description.

Many unique pictures are useless for stock, and the fact that there is no chance to get a different one is irrelevant. This is especially true of the natural world. If you had the only picture of a unique animal species, and the composition and focus weren't perfect, it would be rejected. To complain is to miss the point: Stock is NOT a gallery, a competition, or a specialist photo library. Stock is a general offering of high quality photos for use in design. When an Adobe customer sees "problems" with focus, composition, colour balance or anything else in the photo, they complain, and want a refund. Adobe's reputation suffers. So your magnificent shot has no place in this world, as it stands.

It's a great picture and many social media like sites will get you many likes, points and comments. I agree with @Ricky336 that there is a white balance problem. As for the exposure problem, any correction needs to be subtle. In the right upper corner there is a small darker patch that may be a sensor dust problem or a lens dust problem or simply a cloud not any more in the picture. I would patch that out.

I think it will be a great addition to Adobe stock.
