Hi, share an idea what is wrong with the photo. And if not sorry, how to achieve quality?

Hi @Viktoria Demina ,

The photo is a bit too cool. It's noisy and the depth of field is too shallow. So, the main subject is not completely in focus. There is also blue color fringing on the edge of the dish. 

My eyes were drawn first to the blurred cup and plant container. That is an indication of poor composition. It would be better if you had a landscape image with less of the blurred background elements, otherwise include them in the focus.

You will benefit from these this article that show you how to create better photos for Adobe stock and these additional tip that will help you to achieve better quality image.

Best wishes

Compare your work with other Stock food photography.  How does yours compare?

Keep in mind that when customers search for radishes, they expect to find radishes, not houseplants, etc...  Similarly, when customers search for houseplants, they don't want radishes.   Focus on the main keyword subject.

 

Hope that helps.

Yes, It's probably the noise level. You will need to play with noise reduction:

You should, however, proceed carefully, not to destroy detail.

You're welcome. There may also be a slight underexposure, but I do not think that this led to the refusal:

On my iPad, I see a lot of noise. That would be Technical Issues.

 

Please give the refusal reason.

If Adobe rejected it, they gave a reason. What did they say?
