  • It's simple to add blur to a sharp image after purchase -- anyone with Photoshop can do it. 
  • It's impossible to add sharpness to a blurry photo without introducing other unwanted problems.

 

Use the path of least resistance.  Sharply focused assets sell; blurry ones don't.

    It's a lovely image and suitable for social media or maybe even printing for a wall in your home, but it doesn't meet Adobe's criteria for a stock image. Review the do's and don'ts on this help page:

    Nice but the details are too soft and the highlights are overexposed.

    This is nice art, but Adobe are not buying art unless it is also perfect photography. That includes careful choice of focus, no glare, no filters. Please read their requirements in detail.
