Hi, I'm fairly new to photography in general and I have some (what I think) are pretty cool pictures I thought I might could sell for the purpose of calendars or something you might can add text to with for social media. being that I am new I have no idea what they are looking for.

Hi @Jerett3332903969pc ,

The first file is out of focus, noisy and underexposed.

 

Out of focus

 

Color noise and grainy

 

The second photo is also underexposed and out of focus. Also, I believe you could have improved on the composition. I am not able to figure out the subject of the picture. It would be better if you did include all of one of the mushrooms or zoom in on a specific area you wanted to highlight.

 

The third file is also out of focus, noisy, has color fringing on the edge and underexposed.

You need to zoom in on your files to identify their issues and correct what you can with a photo editor such as Photoshop. You zoom in at between 100 and 200%.

Here is a list of what you need to look for and their description.

Compare your work with current Stock inventory. 

Adobe Stock customers expect highest visual & technical quality for use in commercial print projects.

Always keep in mind that Adobe is a platform that primarily focuses on providing high-quality images for commercial use.

Most buyers on the platform are looking for visuals that are tailored to the needs of
their business.

You have not achieved sharp focus in any of these images. The first really has no focal point, the second is cropped too close and the third has chromatic aberration.

Hi,

 

It seems that there is not much sharp areas in the Pictures (Depth of Field) and the overall sharpness is not good. 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.
