My Photos are rejected

Smartphones in general aren't a great tool for commercial stock photography because of their small sensors and fixed apertures.

Without the depth of field issue of a larger sensors, a small sensor paired with a wide open aperture like f/1.6 makes for a great walk around camera for snapshots.  If you don't mind the quality just being good enough.  I use mine often when quality isn't important to me.

But Adobe is after exceptional quality and in my opinion this is very challenging to produce with a smart phone.

As the others have mentioned, if you post a full sized image we're happy to shed some light on what quality issues are keeping them from being accepted.

Good luck with future submissions 🙂

Adobe provided you with a rejection reason, presumably quality issues. Please post a few of the rejected images and indicate the rejection reason. The community members will provide their opinions as to why they were rejected.

Hello,

Firstly, post a picture that was rejected and we'll help point out why. However, generally speaking, smartphones don't do so well in Adobe Stock because of quality issues - generally being artifacts - JPEG compression. It becomes noticeable when it is enlarged!
