My photo of a purple iris with water drops was rejected the picture is beautiful and unusual. I tried to upload it into the comments here but I could not. It said the file was too large could that have caused it to be rejected? I look forward to any helpful comments, thanks.

Il est indispensable pour comprendre toutes les subtilités de stock de prendre le temps de lire ce qui suit. J'ai aussi parfois des incompréhensions. La plupart du temps c'est parceque je n'ai pas respecter les règles. En revanche je suit plus circonspect quand aux élémination due à de soit disant proriété intelectuels ou reconnaissance de personne. Un exemple: lat our Eifel est libre de droits....sauf la nuit les éclairage ont un copy right. Mais chez stock beaucoup de choses ne sont pas acceptées. En revanche je peut comprendre au vu de la multitude de sites et de situations. Et aussi à la suceptibilité quasiment invraisemblable auquel se heurtent les photographe de street View. Dans les conditions actuels, des photographes tel que Cartier Bresson n'aurait tout simplement pas existé.......mais il semble qu'il faille faire avec. Alors faisons contre mauvaise fortune bon coeur....il y a tellement de sujets qui nous attendent. 😉

If it says the photo was too large, there is the obvious question, how large IS it? Both in megabytes and pixels?

If it was too large it would not have been possible to upload it to Adobe Stock at all; however the limit is quite high so it's quite unlikely for a typical DSLR photo to generate a file that is too large.

Hi @Kelli5E49,

You will need to reduce the size of the photo to upload it here. If it was too large for upload to stock it would not upload at all. To upload here, reduce the size to that specified in the portal here. Please do not make it too small or we will not be able to analyze it.

In the mean time you can check out the link below to see if you can identify where you went wrong.
