The image is not well composed, underexposed in general with a few blown highlights, and very little is in focus.

If you're new to Adobe Stock, I recommend starting out slow. Carefully edit and review each image for technical issues by zooming in to at least 100% and scroll all around within the image. Submit small batches of 4-5 images at a time. Wait for feedback on those so that you can learn from your mistakes and employ what you've learned on the next batch.

You also have chroma noise and luminance noise in the picture.

I doubt that editing this asset can save it. The noise issue and exposure issue may be addressed, but the focus issue is incorrigible.

In addition to what @Jill_C said, compare 5 of your best photos with current Stock inventory.

Is yours better than what Stock has?
Is it suitable for commercial print?
Would you buy it?

If yes, go ahead & submit to Stock. If not, don't. That should help reduce your rejection rate.

What was the reason for the rejections? We just need the header, e.g., "Quality Issues."
