Photo with multiple downloads now rejected.

Hello,

Are you saying that this photo you have attached, has been downloaded numerous times, and is now suddenly rejected?

I think as @Nancy OShea , that it would seem there were complaints about this file.

For instance, in my view, the white balance is wrong - too magenta! 

After a quick colour correction:

In addition to the issues pointed out by @Abambo the horizon is leaning a bit.

The refusal reason is “File could not be accepted”. Yours seems to have got complaints on the quality. The image does not seem to be of a good quality. This looks strongly like colour clipping and overprocessing.

When Adobe Stock receives complaints or refund requests from customers, they're obligated to check content to ensure it meets current standards.  Offending assets are removed from inventory.   If it's similar to other content, it may have been de-selected on the basis of 'duplicate content.'  To find out more, you'll have to contact Stock Contributor Support. https://contributor.stock.adobe.com/contact

Hope that helps.

Sold or not, post-processing the same image in different ways goes against Adobe's rules for submissions and probably falls under the "don't post similar images" rule. So I suspect that is one possible reason. It seems your only recourse is to contact Adobe to ask which one is at fault. There's no "contact us" link in the email?
