Correct answer Nancy OShea

Unfortunately, this image is not good enough for Stock. The focus is poor, the light is uneven, colors are not vibrant, the overall composition is cluttered.

Before submitting, always examine images at 100-300% magnification. Correct problems if you can in Lightroom or Photoshop. Then compare yours with what's already submitted to Stock inventory. If yours isn't as good or better, don't submit it.
