Correct answer Szalam

Year you think so - I have another meaning about that,

but people are different... And if Adobe Stock dont like

that kind of art pictures - it dose'nt matter - the can just

tell me that - I can sell them elsewhere Its not a technical error is it...

The color issue is the only thing I see at the resolution you provided, so it was my best guess as to why it was rejected, but that might not be right. It might be other things that I can't see.

I do know that black and white images sell a lot worse on Adobe Stock compared to images in color, so just from a monetary standpoint it's better to provide color images.

The image is poorly composed. The animal is too centered, it is partialy hidden by... a piece of wood (?) ans there is this blurry light zone in the lower left corner. And when you turn a photo to B & W in Photoshop, you can have very different results with one pic, simulating the color filters used on the lens for B & W photography.

Sorry - I can't see any animal hidden by a piece of wood - can you ? Are we looking at the same picture ?? And too centered sorry - but this picture have won prizes - blurry light zone in left corner - have you heard about clipping... hihihi. AND Im sorry to tell you this is not made by Photoshop - it made by my camera - so you have no problem working with such a picture in Photoshop... - But it dose'nt matter - Im already selling this picture some other place in fact a hole serie taking of two Bengal Cats.... - I see now how things are not function in this stock related place - and that none can answer my question here.

It seems that you came here for people to tell you "Your pic is perfect, it's unfair it has not been selected" and you obviously don't want to listen to the very relevant remarks made by several people. Sorry but, as is, you pic sucks for a microstock.

Is that the size you submitted to Adobe Stock? If so, it's way too small.

No - no - the real size is 6000x4000 px, 300 dpi, 68,7 MB

You can only upload a picture here as this on (says the manual)

Best regards

You can upload the original size on here. People do it for critiques all the time. It enables us to see a lot more detail to offer further help.

One thing I can see, even in that small size, is that you've done quite a bit of editing. Adobe Stock is not the marketplace to sell that sort of thing.

Since many (most?) Adobe Stock customers are working in Photoshop (or with Photoshop easily available), they can very easily make things black and white (and leave a bit in color if they want). So, if you upload the full color version, they could replicate this image very easily. HOWEVER, if somebody wants a full color version and you've uploaded this one, they can't make it color again. In general, it's a better idea to provide very light editing or none. Making a color image black and white automatically cuts down on the number of people who will find it useful by a HUGE amount.
