Hi @VarioDani ,

Too much of the subject of the first image is out of focus. You need to adjust the F-stop settings to get your subjects in focus

Parts of the insect is out of focus because of too much of a shallow depth of field

The third image could be a little warmer and a little grainy.

The out of focus wood in the forefront is a bit distracting and parts of the animal edges are a little soft.

 

Best wishes

Jacquelin

If you're serious about photography, start saving for dedicated camera equipment. 

 

Smartphones are convenient & easy for taking quick snapshots. But they're also very limited in what they can do. You'll never get the same image quality & manual precision from a phone that you will from a DSLR or mirrorless camera. 

 

Most Stock photographers have at least one camera with two or three lenses, a tripod and external lighting.

Forgive my ignorance.  The narrow orientation looked like what one would expect from a phone camera.

IMG_0586.jpg - the DOF appears to be too shallow, causing parts of the creature to be out of focus

IMG_1349.JPG - DOF is also too shallow here.

In general, I avoid uploading floral images. There are already millions in the database, and yours, unless it's a rare and underrepresented variety in the database, is unlikely to ever be seen or licensed by a Buyer.

The flowers: Poorly focused, shallow depth of field.
