Hello! I’m new to adobe stock. This image was rejected due to “quality issues”, I’m not sure what went wrong here and how to rectify it? Is there any specific thing that I should do when post-processing? TIA

The image is 3312 x 5636, 300dpi, 12.3 MB

Hey @vishnupriya

Take few minutes and clean up the tunnel. Remove some of those unnecessary distractions.
Consider using a tripod or monopod: close in on the subject a bit.

Cheers

Hello,

Exposure, the end of passageway is just too bright - no detail - overexposed!

Either a focusing issue or the bright light is doing a number on the silhouette. And I can’t seem to locate any one particular area that is in focus. Without a model willing to remain still for you and an extremely small f-stop, this would be a difficult shot to get right on the fly.
