Recently, none of the photos I sent were accepted. I never encountered such a situation before. Could you please reconsider? And more detailed feedback.

Hello,

A few things to consider:

 

Focus

The last six - subject matter - how can these images be used?

Adobe is about stock photos that can be used commercially!

 

You have to pay attention to your composition, exposure, focus - think about what you are trying to do.

Perhaps some of these links might be of help.

The cave image is quite underexposed but also has a blownout area which is probably unrecoverable.

You are not talking to Adobe here. Please let us know the refusal reason, and do not post that many assets. Checking the images is a lot of work, and we try to do that in a way that enables you to check the rest of your assets on your own. 

 

Your last has chromatic aberration. Your second last is noisy.

Thank you for taking the time to respond. However, I found the tone of your message quite harsh and disrespectful. I did not intend to burden anyone, but rather to ask for feedback — which is the purpose of this community, I believe. A simple, respectful explanation would have been enough. I’ll take your comments into consideration, but I hope in the future feedback can be given in a more constructive and considerate way.

Sorry, if my message comes over as beeing disrespectful. It is, may be a reaction to your initial post, but I suppose we should not go deeper into this. It is however very difficult to refer to one of your pictures, when you post that much.
