Please tell me why my photo is rejected.

This is a Japanese food called "motsuni udon".

I didn't think it was such a strict review.

@nekon_nekon_nekon,

This isn't Instagram. 😉

 

Adobe Stock images are mainly used by professionals in commercial projects.  Speaking as a Stock customer and fan of Japanese cuisine, I wouldn't buy this image.  Sorry.  Please read my remarks about Food Photography from a few days ago.

The cropping may be a problem, but not the only one with picture. It is out of focus, contains a high noise level, the chalice in the background exposes an optical defect and is guiding the eye to the highlight there. In addition, the image is lacking contrast.

 

The picture needs to be interesting, but the image is missing the punch that is needed to make you want to eat what is on the plate.

 

Because of the lack of sharpness and the noise level, I doubt that this picture can be saved.

Thank you for your advice.

Advices here are no rock science, we are (experienced) contributors, not moderators… So, we learned because of our refusals.

First of all, you should have cropped evenly spaced on both sides.

Also, the depth of field and focus should have been deeper.

The highlights in the noodles are overexposed.

What reason did Adobe give, please? They always give a reason. We can help you understand their reasons.
