Hello everyone 

I want an explanation and clarification about the reason for the rejection of the photos, because two photos of me were rejected in a row, the first was because the pattern was repeated and the second because the quality was not sufficient. I worked hard and I love photography, but this frustrated me a lot. 

I would like you to explain this matter. Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I would recommend reading about composition; this is a very important part of taking photos.

To start, you can read this guide from Adobe:

Both photos have quality issues. 

The first has artifacts arround the poles and arround the tree.

The second has underexposed shadows in the bushes and the building needs to be straightened.

Find more unique subjects to photograph for Stock.  Flowers, plants & trees are over-represented.  There's not much demand for more similar content. 

 

Stock is looking for under-represented subjects. Content that's consistently in demand like commercial quality photos & videos representing diversity, lifestyle, education, travel, tech, environment, medicine and business. 

 

Be creative and think outside the box. Stock is not a photo gallery.  It's a global assets service.

    Composition and exposure in this image. The other images is also just slightly tilted and overexposed in areas.

       I understand from this that the revolution has excessive brightness. Yes, I used a filter from the camera itself, but after that I did not use any other modification. Thank you for your response to my inquiry.
