Need Help ! Why Are My High-Quality Images Being Rejected for “Quality Issues”?

Hi everyone! 👋

Why are my high-quality images getting rejected for “Quality Issues”? Could experienced contributors help identify what might be wrong with these images and what I should improve?

Or could this be an issue with Adobe Stock’s automated AI review system?

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! 🙏

      Since we're having trouble uploading images/files here, I've uploaded some of the rejected images to gDrive. Everyone can take a look here
      Google drive folder

      The boy reach for books: remove the leg. It looks detached from the boy.

      Man with plants. The arm hair looks kind of strange at the top of the arms.Note the haloing on his forehead.

      Beekeeper: The man’s face is underexposed and oversaturate. Remove the random specks floating around the bees. There are also white specs on the man’s face mask. Some of the bees look poorly rendered.

      Bro, I have a few questions now. 😅

      1. Child reaching for a picture book
      Doesn't the pose look natural? The boy is supporting himself with one leg and one hand while stretching the other side of his body to reach a book that's too high.

      Also do you know, I accidentally uploaded this image and it was accepted. I later deleted it myself when I noticed it
      https://drive.google.com/file/d/1K8XIxrXkQ7_WzEQmrQ1VC_fHauHMW7qQ/view?usp=drive_link

      2. Man with plants
      Doesn't his arm hair look natural? I can't see anything strange.

      Also, should we review images at 100% zoom, or zoom in further? Doesn't excessive zooming make almost any image look pixelated?

      3. Beekeeper
      I agree that the face is underexposed and oversaturated. I'll fix it and try again.


      what about
      Overwater bungalows 
      &
      young woman chef in a bright kitchen
      What specific quality issues do you notice in these two images?

      I tried downloading the linked attachments but they just download an html file that leads to a page not found page. Frustrating.

      If you have a Drop Box or Google Drive, you can try uploading them there and provide the link.
