Hi! I´m the new one here.

I uploaded my photos of the roads and places of Iceland that are NOT the private property. I mean, normal roads (one of a thousands in Iceland), normal glaciars (one of hundreds free to visit)...

I´ve read the rules and still don´t understand why they are rejected?

Great pictures, but as Test_Screen_Name says, logos should not be visible. You can edit the logos out and submit again. The people are seen from the back, so I do not suspect them to be a problem.

For the dawn picture (first) I would expect at least some noise, the road picture (second) needs some colour correction (it's a little bit too blue), the waterfall could also get a slight colour correction, this one is slightly to yellowish. The last one is nearly perfect, except from a tiny bluish colour cast. A very slight colour correction would do.

If there are no other artefacts, they will pass.

This rejection is nothing to do with Iceland, but these pictures have more than glaciers. They have people wearing products. One way to think about intellectual property in photos: suppose you made or sold a product. "If the product was in a photo, would you (the creator or seller) recognise it?" One way to think about people in photos."If you were the person in the photo, might you be able to identify yourself (from your face, clothes, situation, place,...)?" I assume you have model releases for each person, but do you have property releases for those very particular boots, and perhaps coats?

No *identifiable* clothes without a release. I don't know what view Adobe would take on the coats. Surely though, the boots are identifiable. Be sure, if Adobe sold the picture, and someone used it to sell a product, the maker of the boots could recognise, and sue Adobe in some countries. Remember: the image you sell might be used by a maker of different boots, or coats...

Try disguising the boots in a very generic way and resubmit one. Or, since you have many photos of the same boots, get a property release for them.

If you could give us the rejection reason you where given and a link to the picture at a higher resolution, we would probably be able to point out some problems on the picture that leads to rejection.

Just as a general approach: You should not have any logos in the picture and all the persons on the picture need to sign a picture release. Sometimes you also need a property release, because some buildings a protected even if photographed from the public space...

1. What are the EXACT reasons for rejection? Please quote, there are different reasons from visible trademarks, to watermarks on images, to images with too many existing photos already in the shop.

2. Please share one photo from each category; does not need to be high res.
