Hi, please tell me what's wrong here, this photo was declined due to quality issues , this shoot was nor smartphone, it was photographed on Lumix camera with lens. Maybe I gave to much saturation in PS. Or such kind of nature content isn't suitable for Adobe Stock?

The image is underexposed and a bit unsharp.

Obviously, many of the considerations about the quality of the photos issued by the Community Experts are subjective. Most of the time when a photo is rejected for under or overexposure I don't share that opinion. This particular photo, for me, is not underexposed. It is out of focus, a bit shaky, and in my modest point of view, it lacks interest in itself. Perhaps by varying the composition it could be improved.

absolutely in vain you speak about lack of interest about this photo. This photo is about walking cows, goats, man with them, field, forest. I live in s big city, and it's absolutely ineterest to meet cows and goats walking in the forest to their home. Can't understand why someone can see here the lack of inerest. Even if he lives in a village with cows, I caught the movement and not something special prepared and ordinary. 105% I desagree with your vision.

Nature content is fine.  But you're standing under a tree and there's not enough light there. 

Next time move into the open area where there's ample sunlight to expose your subject.

Understanding light is fundamental in photography. Have you taken any photography courses yet?

Thank you, there was a scene here they walked and the light was in a moment natural . I 'll try to move into the open area in some situation like that

Hi! Once more I'd like to find out what's wrong. This photo was shot on Lumix camera. After I took RAW format for this photo and raised exposure, reduced noise. Please, tell me, I was told in a previous answer this photo is underexposed and a bit unsharp. Is it possible in LIght room to make corrections or not? I can't see some fatal issues here! Can you explain the way to satisfy Adobe Stock requirements? I need to realize how to make corrections in RAW format to satisfy Adobe Stock. Earlier there was an opportunity to ask adobe stock team about troubleshooting. But now this opportunity is not available any more. Thank you very much.

Look at this image (not in email). Shows original (posted by you) on left, and edited on right, viewed at 100%

 

The cow is much better exposed but look at the grass. It is highly overexposed, a less appealing colour (but perhaps realistic in summer), and somehow has less detail. I also observe (not in the shot) that the cow's back where it joins the grass is still less sharp than the rest of the cow. I thought it might be motion blur, but it's a fast exposure, so I'd love to hear why from someone.

You say you took the raw photo for this image. Just checking - did you take it in RAW originally, and always had the RAW? Or did you somehow convert the JPEG to RAW?

I took RAW from Camera directly, JPEQ format his camera provides in addition. I did not take jpeq, I took only RAW. Please, tell me how can be everytning with an equal detalization when on focus were cows. The back forest can not be the same ditalization as cows, grass also the same. So now overexposed you see as an expert, the previous was underexposed another expert wrote. I can say I took histogram and watched that, no overexposed was calculated. I think, It is rather some issues in adobe stock assessment for quality. Gonna find the decision nevertheless. Thank you.

The picture is indeed interesting. But you need to fulfil all quality and release requirements. You will need a model release for the “cattle walker”. Besides this, you have multiple other issues with this picture. In addition to what @Jill_C said, you also have artefacts , noise and numerous other issues.
