Hi @johnh57587968 ,

You should concentrate on maximizing the flexibility and use of your assets to maximize the number of sales. While one or two persons might like your artwork for background, you'd most likely not get multiple sales as is. Having your subject in focus can also be used as background, but more flexibly when the artist can superimpose layers of people, animals or things to create their own artistic scene, or using the image as is as an illustration or to tell a story.

If Adobe does not see the potential of your assets getting sales, they will not be accepted. Just view your work as material for other to use for their projects.

Best wishes

This is what you're competing with.

As a customer, which would you buy?

It goes without saying that customers can easily add blur effects after purchase, if desired. But it's not so easy to remove blur once it's there.  

Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects.

Hope that helps.

I assume you didn't submit this with your logo on it. Even though the blur is intentional, the Adobe Moderator most likely regarded that as a lack of focus, rendering it not suitable for commercial use. We aren't selling art here. We're selling images for commercial applications.
